List of tallest buildings in Dortmund
This list of tallest buildings in Dortmund ranks high-rise buildings and important landmarks that reach a height of 50 meters (164 feet). The tallest structure in the city is the 209-meter-high Florianturm, a television tower built in 1959.
Two smaller clusters of tall buildings have emerged in Dortmund. Once in the city center opposite the main train station with RWE-Tower, Sparkassen-Hochhaus, IWO-Hochhaus & Hardenberg City-Center and once at Westfalenpark, with Florianturm, Telekom Hochhaus and RWE Hochhaus. Over the next few years, the cluster at the main station is expecting two new additions of 60 meters each. One high-rise building at Burgtor and one at the old Deutsche Bahn administration building.
