13 Other Leaning Towers

By Miss Cellania in Architecture, Travel & Places on Nov 5, 2009 at 1:11 pm


Hey, it’s hard to keep a tower on the straight and narrow! The Leaning Tower of Pisa may be the most famous, but there are towers that lean all over the world. Web Urbanist looks at thirteen of them, including the Round Tower of the Kilmacduagh Monastery in Ireland pictured. It leans 1.5 feet, but is in no danger of falling over. And its door is 26 feet off the ground! Link -via Unique Daily

    The towers can lean all over the world? Those are pretty tall towers...

    Some those look as though they could use immediate attention.

    Hey, I've been the one at Kilmacduagh Monastery about 5 years ago. Pretty cool! I honestly don't remember it leaning, though :-)
