Teletornet

Teletornet was built to link all the telephone wires (about 5500 ) in Stockholm in the late 1800s. The tower was the first riveted truss construction in Sweden. Already in 1913 the tower was out of fashion when all the cables had been buried instead of being airborne, which meant that it entirely lost its function. In 1952 it burned so severely that it was later demolished the year after.
