Very tall structures of unknown height
There are some facilities in Russia and other parts of former Soviet Union, which may use permanent man-made structures taller than 250 metres. As some of them are of military importance, no height data are currently available. These facilities include the following stations:
- Alpha transmitter Revda (68°02′8″N 34°41′00″E)
- Alpha transmitter Seyda (39°28′16″N 62°43′07″E)
- Large chimney of Karagandinskaya TÈC-3 ( 49°55′0.84″N 73°14′14.2″E)
- Chimneys of Rustavi Metallurgical Plant (2 chimneys – an estimate over 200 m high)
If one could find out the height of the mentioned structures, then put them in the upper list, if the height is greater than 250 metres.
Tall structures characteristic for former Soviet Union
There are several types of tall structures, which were either only or mainly built in former Soviet Union.
Stalinistic skyscrapers
Skyscrapers built during Stalin's last years (1947–1953) in an elaborate combination of Russian Baroque and Gothic styles (see Seven Sisters (Moscow)). Similar buildings less tall were built in several other cities in former Soviet Union.
| Building | City | Height | Year of built | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moscow State University | Moscow | 787 ft | 240 m | 1953 |
| Hotel Ukraine | Moscow | 650 ft | 198 m | 1955 |
| Building on Kotelnicheskaya Embankment | Moscow | 577 ft | 176 m | 1952 |
| Ministry of Foreign Affairs | Moscow | 564 ft | 172 m | 1953 |
| Kudrinskaya Square | Moscow | 525 ft | 160 m | 1954 |
| Hotel Leningradskaya | Moscow | 446 ft | 136 m | 1953 |
| Red Gate Square | Moscow | 436 ft | 133 m | 1953 |
Guyed Masts with crossbars
Between 1960 and 1965 in several cities in Russia and Ukraine guyed masts with crossbars running from the mastbody to the guys were built. All these masts, which are known as 30107 KM, are exclusively used for UHF-/VHF-transmission ( mainly FM-/TV-transmission) and have a closed tubular mast body.

Hyperbolic towers built by Shukhov
Vladimir Shukhov built between 1900 and 1930 several hyperbolic lattice towers for different uses at several places.
| Tower | City | Height | Year of built | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shukhov Tower | Moscow | 525 ft | 160 m | 1922 |
| Dzerzhinsk High-Voltage Mast | Dzerzhinsk | 420 ft | 128 m | 1929 |
Other
In nearly all larger towns in the former Soviet Union, there is a lattice tower of type 3803 KM
