The Leaning Tower of Stavanger is a protected landmark that rises 50 meters above the ground. The building was built in 1984 and is known for its innovative concrete technology. The tower has a tilt angle of 16 degrees, making it more leaning than the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. Originally planned as a temporary structure, it has since become a lasting symbol of the region's oil history.

Today, the tower serves as a unique meeting room with a historical feel, and offers spectacular views of Stavanger and the surrounding area. The wall thickness of the building varies from 75 to 100 centimeters, which contributes to the tower's characteristic appearance and stability. The Leaning Tower is therefore not only an architectural attraction, but also an important part of the city's cultural heritage.
