List of tallest buildings in Hanover

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Telemoritz, Lister Tor and Sparkasse Hannover
Ihme-Zentrum with Hochhaus der Stadtwerke

This list of tallest buildings in Hanover ranks high-rise buildings and important landmarks that reach a height of 50 meters (164 feet). The tallest structure in the city is by far the 282-meter-high Telemax, a television tower built in 1992.

Hannover's history of skyscrapers began 1928 with the completion of the 12 storey, 51-meter-high (167-feet) Anzeiger-Hochhaus.[1]

Most of the high-rise buildings are concentrated in two smaller clusters. One is located in the center of Hanover, along Hamburger Allee and Raschplatz and near the main train station with Telemoritz, Lister Tor, Sparkasse Hannover, IntercityHotel and Hamburger Allee 25. The other cluster is the Ihme-Zentrum with Stadtwerke-Hochhaus, Ihmepassage 2, Ihmeplatz 1 and other residential high-rise buildings.[2]
