Atlantic Hotel Sail City and Columbus-Center in Bremerhaven

This list of tallest buildings in Bremen (state) ranks high-rise buildings and important landmarks that reach a height of 50 meters (164 feet). The tallest structure in the city state is by far the 235.7-meter-high Bremen TV tower, a telecommunication tower built in 1986.

Bremen is the smallest and least populous of the 16 federal states in Germany and consists of just two cities, the city of Bremen and its seaport exclave, Bremerhaven. There are high-rise buildings in both cities, but the two tallest, Atlantic Hotel Sail City and Columbus Center I, are located in the smaller city of Bremerhaven and only the third tallest belongs to the state capital Bremen. However, the city of Bremen has a larger number of high-rise buildings overall.
