Does anyone else think that this structure is much taller than 20m?

[WhipperSnapper]

I agree - closer to 30m or even 35m

[65MAX]

Actually, the (German) info sheet said the domed roof is 20m high, which means the whole building is closer to 50 or 60m, the spire/minaret probably 70m +-.

Thanks for the translation. I'll add it later.

20 metres is the height of the roof of the dome. The chimneys are taller, but I have no data of their height.
