List of Top 100 tallest buildings in Germany in 2025

This list ranks the tallest habitable buildings in Germany as of 2025, each standing at a minimum height of 100 metres (328 feet). Only buildings designed for residential, commercial, or mixed-use purposes are included—structures such as radio masts, observation towers, steeples, chimneys, and other non-habitable architectural forms are excluded.

High-rise construction is relatively rare across German cities, especially in traditional city centres where church steeples historically dominate the skyline. The notable exception is Frankfurt, which, due to its role as a major international financial hub, is the only German city with a skyline defined by modern skyscrapers. Of the 22 skyscrapers in Germany—defined here as buildings reaching at least 150 metres (492 feet)—20 are located in Frankfurt.

Germany’s journey into vertical architecture began in 1915 with the construction of the Zeiss Bau 15 in Jena. Several early high-rise landmarks followed, including:

Wilhelm Marx House in Düsseldorf
Borsigturm and Ullsteinhaus in Berlin
Hansahochhaus in Cologne
Anzeiger-Hochhaus in Hanover
Tagblatt-Turm in Stuttgart
Kroch High-Rise and Europahaus in Leipzig

These pioneering structures laid the foundation for Germany’s gradual but selective adoption of high-rise development.
