List of tallest buildings in Minnesota

This list of tallest buildings in Minnesota ranks skyscrapers in the state of Minnesota by tallest height of high rise. This does not include antennas, although the tallest overall man-made structure in Minnesota is the KPXM-TV Tower in Nowthen. It is also the 212th tallest structure in the United States. The majority of the tallest buildings in Minnesota are in Minneapolis, the largest city in the state by population. Other cities that have some of the state's tallest buildings include the state capital of St. Paul (14), South St. Paul (1), Rochester (11), Golden Valley (4), St. Louis Park (7), Plymouth (1), Duluth (6), Brooklyn Center (1), St. Cloud (2), Edina (9), Maplewood (1), Robbinsdale (1), Eden Prairie (4), Moorhead (2), Richfield (4), Eagan (2), and Bloomington (15). Not all buildings in Minneapolis and St. Paul are listed, due to the large number of skyscrapers and high rises in both cities.
