Stockholm Telephone tower

The Old Stockholm telephone tower was an 80-metre metal lattice structure built in 1887 to consolidate thousands of overhead telephone lines in central Stockholm. The quadrangular tower had a decorative iron gallery and four turrets with spires; it remained in use until 1913 and was demolished after fire damage in 1953.

As it stood in 1890

What Stockholm Telephone tower looked like in its prime.

Tall quadrangular iron lattice tower rising about 80 metres above surrounding rooftops, its steel frame of vertical and diagonal members exposed, with a filigreed iron gallery near the top and four ornate turrets capped by slender spires. Hundreds of thin overhead telephone wires radiate from attachment points on the superstructure and sweep across the city to neighboring buildings. The tower's dark metal contrasts with tile roofs and chimneys below; the frame is open and skeletal.
