Tallest Freestanding Structures in History
के द्वारा Zoungy

Models of the structures (whether building or broadcast tower or whatever) that have held the record for "tallest freestanding structure" from 2700 BCE to present. Some "tallest buildings" are "missing" because they were shorter than other non-building structures. The Willis Tower (formerly Sears Tower) is not included for example because there were broadcast towers at the time taller than the skyscraper. Singer Building is missing because the Eiffel Tower was taller at the time. All models from the Pyramid of Djoser to the present day are accounted for except for St. Nikolai in Hamburg, which from 1874-1876 was the tallest. It is visible only on Google Earth and "unclickable." Thumbnail is "Cathédrale de Strasbourg" by Deloras.
