The Turning Torso is a neo-futurist skyscraper designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and built in 2005. At 190 metres, it was the tallest building in the Nordic region until September 2022, when it was surpassed by Karlatornet in Gothenburg, which is still under construction. The Turning Torso consists of nine cubes with a total of 54 floors, where winding from base to peak is 90 degrees. Today, the Turning Torso is a residential building with 147 apartments of various sizes, from one-bedroom studios of 45 square metres to threes bedroom flats of 190 square meters. During the summer you have the opportunity to visit its top floor.
