It is usually a strong high structure attached to a building in mediaeval times. There are small openings in this high tower , which allows the inhabitants to shoot at invaders. During world war 2 nations built very strong concrete 'bunkers' , with large machine guns inside them. There was always a long narrow slot in the wall through which the 'shells' were fired at the enemy. These bunkers were also called 'gun turrets'.
