Averotoren, Office tower in Leeuwarden, Netherlands

The Averotoren stands 77 meters tall with 18 floors, marking the second tallest office building in the Frisian capital of Leeuwarden.

Constructed in 1991 by Bonnema architects, the Averotoren held the title of tallest building in Leeuwarden until the completion of Achmeatoren in 2002.

The building contributes to local wildlife conservation through a falcon nesting box installed on its 18th floor at 72 meters high.

The building functions as an office complex and serves as a primary business center in the northern region of the Netherlands.

Local organizations collaborated to install a peregrine falcon nesting box in April 2011 to support breeding programs for these birds.
