In Malmö, Sweden one of the most exciting building projects is under construction, the Turning Torso. When it is completed it will be Europes highest residential building and Turning Torso will reach 190 metres above sea level. You can see over the sea to Denmark and Copenhagen from the building.
The vision of Turning Torso is based on a sculpture by the architect Santiago Calatrava, one of the most fascinating architects of our time. He is internationally renowned for a series of remarkable and architecturally innovative projects.

A livecam is situated at the construction site. Follow the work from their website were the webcam link can be found to the Turning torso website
You can also see the famous Öresound Bridge spanning from Sweden to Denmark with 17 km of length.
