Kukurica Tower, High-rise building in Bratislava, Slovakia.

The Kukurica Tower reaches 80 meters into the sky with 21 floors, featuring a circular design that makes it visible throughout the city center.

The Ministry of Defense commissioned this building in 1977 as accommodation for military personnel during the period of governmental expansion in Bratislava.

The tower exemplifies the architectural principles of brutalism from the 1970s, with its raw concrete exterior and pronounced structural elements defining its appearance.

The building stands at Jarošova Street number 1 in Bratislava, currently undergoing retrofitting works that started in 2023 to update its infrastructure.

When completed in 1977, this cylindrical structure held the distinction of being the tallest round building in Europe at that time.
