# List of tallest buildings in Canberra

This list of tallest buildings in Canberra ranks the tallest in Australia's capital city by height. This ranking system was created by the US-based Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat and includes the height to a spire but not to an antenna. The High Society Towers at 113 metres (371 ft) and 100 metres (330 ft) respectively, with 27 storeys, are the tallest in the city. It is in Belconnen, a district of North Canberra.
The maximum height of buildings in Canberra Central is 617 metres (2,024 ft) above sea level, generally about 50 metres (160 ft) above ground level in Canberra City, in compliance with the RL617 rule in the National Capital Authority's National Capital Plan. As a result, the highest buildings are now found in the outer town centres, such as Phillip and Belconnen.
