In 1958 a 280 metres tall radio mast of the "Europe 1" transmitter in Felsberg-Berus had to be moved a way of 104 metres, otherwise the radiation pattern would have shown in the wrong direction. In order to perform this, the mast was lifted on a special railcar running on two tracks in paralell. On these tracks the mast was slowly moved, whereby the guys had to be adjusted permanently.

I believe, this was the tallest object ever moved on earth.
