context_page_description: This list ranks the tallest buildings in the European Union that stand at least 140 metres tall, based on standard height measurement. This means that spires and other architectural details are included in the official height, but not antenna masts, as it is defined by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat. Only habitable buildings are ranked, which excludes radio masts and towers, observation towers, cathedrals, steeples, chimneys and other tall architectural structures.
  The tallest building in the EU is the Commerzbank Tower in Frankfurt, Germany, at 259 meters. It had been the tallest building in the EU once before, from 1997 until 2011, when The Shard was completed in London, United Kingdom. Because of the United Kingdom leaving the EU the Commerzbank Tower is once again the EU's tallest building, since January 31, 2020, until the scheduled completion of Varso Tower in Warsaw, Poland later in 2020.
context_section_description: This list includes buildings under construction that have already been architecturally topped out. Architectural height is considered, so masts and other elements added after completion of building are not considered.
