The Leaning Tower of Suurhusen is a notable church steeple in the village of Suurhusen, which is part of the town of Hinte near Emden, Germany. Renowned for its significant tilt, the tower leans at an angle that surpasses even that of the more famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. The structure originally dates back to the 13th century and was built as part of a church complex. The tower's lean is primarily due to the subsidence of the marshy ground on which it was constructed.
