Encyclopedia > List of tallest structures in the world
The Warsaw radio mast, built in 1974, was the tallest structure ever built at 646.38 m (2,121 ft). It collapsed in 1991.

This is a list of tallest structures in the world, past and present of any type. Most of the tallest structures are television broadcasting masts, followed by a mix of the taller tower-type structures (like the CN Tower) and the taller high rise buildings (like the Sears Tower).

Terminology

There is often ambiguity between the terms tower and mast. A tower is a self-supporting or cantilevered structure, while a mast is held up by stays or guys.[1] Both towers and masts have limited floor space and are non-building structures, as opposed to regular buildings which have greater floor space for occupancy. The terminology is further confused through misuse. Skyscrapers are often referred to as towers[2] and some towers use the term mast. Ironically, skyscraper has some etymology from references to high sailboat masts.

List by height

Notes

  • A minimum height limit of 400 metres (1,312 ft) for notable structures) is used for practical purposes to keep the list to a reasonable length. Second part of the list contains lower structures.
  • Likely structures still missing from this list include masts used for the Russian navigation system RSDN-20.
  • Structures no longer standing are in italics.
  • For all structures the pinnacle height is given, so the height of skyscrapers may differ from the values at List of skyscrapers.
  • Most of the taller masts are located in the United States (indicated by colour), where a prevalence of masts of around 2,000 feet (610 m) in height is the result of special rules in that country limiting structures and objects taller than 2,063 feet (629 m).
  • Structures under construction are included in main list if its current height is over 400 metres (1,312 ft).
