The outer Napoleon circle, a term coined here for the first time, is the circumcircle of the outer Napoleon triangle. It has center at the triangle centroid (and is thus concentric with the inner Napoleon circle) and radius

The only Kimberling center lying on it is , the second Fermat point.
The following table gives pairs of inverse Kimberling centers with respect to the outer Napoleon circle.
