Lean­ing Tower of Suurhusen


The most slanted of them all, even the Leaning Tower of Pisa! The Schiefer Kirchturm von Suurhusen (Leaning Tower of Suurhusen) in the village of Hinte is 27.37 metres tall with an overhang of 2.47 metres. It leans at an angle of 5.19 degrees, whereas the Leaning Tower of Pisa’s lean is just 3.97 degrees. Which makes the Schiefer Kirchturm von Suurhusen (Leaning Tower of Suurhusen) the most tilted tower in the world. This fact has even been recognised in the Guinness World Records.
