Wilhelminatoren
Netherlands
The 186th tallest tower in the world
The Wilhelminatoren was a lookout tower in the Dutch town of Valkenburg aan de Geul. The thirty-meter-high Rijksmonument, designed by Christiaan Alfons Prevoo and constructed in 1906, stood on the Heunsberg and offered a wide vantage point over the South Limburg Heuvelland. In the early morning of 16 March 2025, the tower suddenly collapsed. This was a different tower from the Wilhelminatoren with the same name only 20 kilometers further away at the Vaalserberg in Vaals.
