The Eiffel Tower - tallest in the world from 1889 to 1930 and a famous Paris' landmark

A landmark is a recognizable natural or man-made feature used for navigation, a feature that stands out from its near environment and is often visible from long distances.

In modern use, the term can also be applied to smaller structures or features, that have become local or national symbols.

This is an incomplete list of landmarks that are the most relevant in their national or local context.
