Akhmat Tower (Russian: Ахмáт Тáуэр) is a stalled supertall skyscraper in Grozny, Chechen Republic of Russia. Upon its completion, it would become the second tallest building in Europe, after Lakhta Center, as well as the first building in Europe to have at least 100 floors. Construction started on January 2, 2016, and as of September 2016, the piling work was completed. It was scheduled for completion in 2020,[1] but as of November 2024, the tower still stands incomplete.[2]
Akhmat Tower is named after former first President of the Chechen Republic, Akhmad Kadyrov.[3]
The building is planned to be 435 m (1,427 ft) tall, with 102 floors. The design of the building is heavily influenced by Vainakh tower architecture, modeled after the military towers. The building will incorporate offices, apartments, a 5-star hotel, parking, a museum, and public spaces.
Architecture
The building has elements of traditional Chechen Nakh Architecture from its skyline and proportions, such as the architectural aspect of Chechen ethnic towers from the 12th century onwards. [4]
