This list ranks the tallest buildings in theEuropean Union (EU) that stand at least 150 metres (492 ft) tall, based on standard height measurement. This means thatspires and other architectural details are included in the official height, but notantenna masts, as it is defined by theCouncil on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Only habitable buildings are ranked, which excludesradio masts and towers,observation towers,cathedrals,steeples,chimneys and other tall architectural structures.

Tall buildings are relatively rare within the EU compared to other regions of the world that have the know-how and capital to build skyscrapers.^[1] Only a few cities in the EU have a notable number of high-rises, best known are: Frankfurt, Warsaw, Madrid and Paris.^[2] Most skyscrapers in Europe can be found outside of the EU, notably in three cities:London,Moscow andIstanbul. As a result, out of the top 500 of tallest buildings in the world –as of 2024– only one is located in the EU.^[3] Since 22 February 2021 the tallest building in the EU has been theVarso Tower in Warsaw, Poland, which is 310 metres (1,017 ft) tall.^[4]

This list includes buildings under construction that have already been architecturallytopped out. Architectural height is considered, so masts and other elements added after completion of building are not considered.

Some skyscraper enthusiasts prefer this measurement, claiming that the extensions that can or cannot be deemed "architectural" are subjective. However, many non-architectural extensions (such as radio antennas) are easily added and removed from tall buildings without significantly changing the style and design of the building, which is seen as a significant part of the value of these buildings.

The list includes all skyscrapers of at least 180 metres (591 ft) tall. However the height data is subject to fluctuations due to simple changing of mast extensions. This list includes buildings under construction that have already been architecturally topped out.

This lists buildings that are under construction in European Union and are planned to rise at least 150 metres (492 ft). Approved or proposed buildings are not included in the table. Included are renders of the finished towers or images of the current construction sites.

The following is a timeline of the tallest buildings in the European Union (EU) and its direct predecessor, theEuropean Economic Community (EEC) established in 1957.

Prior to 1966,Edificio España andTorre de Madrid in Madrid surpassed the height of the then tallest EU building, but Spain didn't become a European Union member until 1986. Similarly, before 1990, thePalace of Culture and Science inWarsaw surpassed the height of the then tallest EU building; however, Poland did notbecome a member of the European Union until 2004.

The Shard ceased to be tallest building in the EU in 2020 due to the United Kingdomexiting the European Union. The title then returned to the previous holder, Frankfurt's Commerzbank Tower. Had this not been the case, the Shard would've still lost the title a few months later to Warsaw's Varso Tower regardless.
