<p>Die Begriffe <b>Torbau</b> oder <b>Torgebäude</b> bezeichnen größere tiefenräumlich gestaltete und weitgehend von der umgebenden Bebauung unabhängige <a href="Tor_(Architektur)" title="Tor (Architektur)">Toranlagen</a> im Sinne eines eigenständigen <a href="Geb%C3%A4ude" title="Gebäude">Gebäudes</a> (manchmal mit eigenen Räumlichkeiten) oder einer funktionellen Einheit als Teil eines größeren Gebäudes oder Gebäudekomplexes. Sie stehen meist auf der Grenze zwischen zwei nicht überdachten Freiflächen (Hof, Straße), haben einen oberen Anschluss (<a href="Bogen_(Architektur)" title="Bogen (Architektur)">Bogen</a>, <a href="Architrav" title="Architrav">Architrav</a>, <a href="Zinne" title="Zinne">Zinnen</a>) und haben oft einen weniger funktionalen als vielmehr einen repräsentativen Charakter.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Beispiele">Beispiele</h2></div>
<p>Zu den Torbauten zählen <a href="Torburg" title="Torburg">Torburgen</a> oder <b>Torhallen</b>, Ehrentore (wie beispielsweise <a href="Triumphbogen" title="Triumphbogen">Triumphbögen</a>, <a href="Triumphtor" title="Triumphtor">Triumphtore</a>), aber auch <a href="Br%C3%BCckenturm" title="Brückenturm">Brückentore</a>; auch die indischen <a href="Gopuram" title="Gopuram">Gopurams</a> sowie die japanischen <a href="Torii" title="Torii">Torii</a> und chinesischen Scheintore (<a href="Pailou" title="Pailou">Pailou</a>) gehören dazu.
</p><p>In Ägypten gibt es den <a href="Pylon_(Architektur)" title="Pylon (Architektur)">Pylon</a> als Torbau und in Griechenland den <a href="Propylon" title="Propylon">Propylon</a> mit zahlreichen Sonderformen.
</p><p><a href="Stadttor" title="Stadttor">Stadttore</a>, Burg- und Klostertore (oft in Form von <a href="Torhaus" title="Torhaus">Torhäusern</a>) sind Teil einer Befestigungsanlage; viele von ihnen sind mit hohen dominanten Türmen versehen.
</p><p>Der Innenraum eines Torbaues (bei einem Triumphbogen die offene Fläche unter dem Bogen) wird oft „Torhalle“ genannt. Der Totentempel zu <a href="Sakkara" title="Sakkara">Sakkara</a> oder das Tor des <a href="Xerxes_I." title="Xerxes I.">Xerxes</a> in <a href="Persepolis" title="Persepolis">Persepolis</a> haben bemerkenswert große Torhallen.
