Poland has 42 high-rise buildings that stand at least 100 metres (330 ft) tall,[1] being one of 17 countries in the world to have a supertall skyscraper (building that rises at least 300 m (980 ft)).[2]
The country's first high-rises started to be constructed in Warsaw, Katowice, Wrocław and Łódź in the first half of the 20th century. The PAST Building was the first such building in Poland. Built in 1908, it was at that time the tallest residential building in Europe at 51.5 metres (169 ft), as well as one of the earliest reinforced concrete structures of this type in the continent.[3] Other early high-rises include the Drapacz Chmur, in Katowice, and the Prudential, in Warsaw, which was in its completion in 1933 the tenth tallest building in Europe at 66 metres (217 ft).[4]
At the beginning of the post-war period, the 237-metre (778 ft) tall Palace of Culture and Science was built in the centre of Warsaw at the behest of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin.[5][6] At the time of its completion in 1955, it was the eighth tallest building in the world and the second tallest in Europe, retaining these positions until 1961 and 1990, respectively.[7]
Poland saw a major increase in the number of high-rise buildings following its political transformation of 1989 and throughout the 21st century. Most of the country's tallest skyscrapers are located in the Śródmieście and Wola districts of Warsaw.[8] In Śródmieście, a cluster of skyscrapers is arranged around the centrally located Palace of Culture and Science. Since the 1970s the district's urban planning has been designed in a way that counterpoints the skyline domination by the Palace.[4]
The tallest building in Poland is currently the 310-metre (1017 ft) tall Varso Tower, in Warsaw, which is also the tallest building in the European Union and the sixth tallest building in Europe.[9][10][11]

- ^ The building's structure was heavily damaged during the Warsaw Uprising of 1944, when it was hit by approximately 1,000 artillery shells, including by a 2-tonne Karl-Gerät mortar shell. The artillery damage left only the steel framework standing and bent the tower sideways, but it survived the war and was rebuilt afterwards, remaining as Poland's tallest building until 1955.[68]
