List of flagpoles by height
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This list of flagpoles by height includes completed flagpoles which are either free–standing or supported, excluding the height of any pedestal (plinth), building, or other base platform which may elevate them. Due to the list's incomplete nature, flagpoles shorter than 120 m (390 ft) are not ranked.
