Let $W$ be a Weyl group, and let $\CT_W$ be the complex toric variety attached to the fan of cones corresponding to the reflecting hyperplanes of $W$, and its weight lattice. The real locus $\CT_W(\R)$ is a smooth, connected, compact manifold with a $W$-action. We give a formula for the equivariant Euler characteristic of $\CT_W(\R)$ as a generalised character of $W$. In type $A_{n-1}$ for $n$ odd, one obtains a generalised character of $\Sym_n$ whose degree is (up to sign) the $n^{\text{th}}$ Euler number.
