The Great Pyramid of Giza is 146.5 meters tall. Lincoln Cathedral, in England, was the first building claimed to been taller. From 1300 - 1549 its tallest spire was reported to have been 159.7 meters high. However the spire blew off during a storm 1549.

The oldest structure still standing taller than the Great Pyramid is St. Nicholas' Church in Hamburg, Germany. In 1874 its spire reached a height of 147.3 meters.
