Turm-Geschichte
Varso Tower has quickly become one of Europe’s most recognizable skyscrapers and a defining symbol of contemporary Warsaw. Designed by Foster + Partners, the building combines architectural clarity with advanced engineering, rising as the tallest structure in the European Union. Its integration of office spaces and a public observation deck creates a seamless blend of function and experience, expressed through a design celebrated for its refined simplicity and modern elegance.
Beobachtungsdeck
Highline Warsaw elevates the experience of Warsaw to an entirely new dimension, occupying the top floors of Varso Tower – the tallest building in the European Union. At 230 meters above the city, it features the highest 360° observation deck in the EU, offering an uninterrupted dialogue between skyline and horizon.
Yet Highline Warsaw goes beyond the view. It is an immersive journey through the city’s history, energy, and emotion, designed to engage all senses and leave a lasting impression.
At its heart lies the 49th floor, home to the HighGarden Rooftop Lounge – the highest cocktail bar in the EU, seamlessly connected to an open-air terrace with a living garden. This elevated oasis blends nature, design, and gastronomy, creating a space where time slows, and every moment is framed by the city below.
Highline Warsaw is not just a place to observe, it is a place to feel, to connect, and to experience Warsaw from above. Because here, the sky is only the beginning.
