Casa Guidi Windows: A Poem (1851) is a collection of poems written by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

The collection is named after the windows of the couple's apartment in Casa Guidi, which overlooks the Piazza Santa Felicita. The poems reflect on the political and social climate of Italy during the mid-19th century, including the struggle for Italian unification and the oppression of women. The collection is considered one of Browning's most significant works and is praised for its lyrical and emotional depth.
