Kabul Tower, Brutalist high-rise structure in Kabul, Afghanistan.
The Kabul Tower features 18 floors and rises 87 meters into the sky, making it a noticeable structure in the Afghan capital's skyline.
Built in 1976, the Kabul Tower served as the principal communications hub during Afghanistan's period of modernization in the late twentieth century.
The structure represents Afghanistan's adoption of modern architectural design principles through its concrete exterior and geometric patterns.
The Ministry of Communications and Information Technology maintains its central offices within the building, coordinating telecommunications across Afghanistan.
The building maintained its status as Afghanistan's tallest structure for over four decades until 2020, when the Kabul Markaz Residential Tower 1 exceeded its height.
