The Trbovlje Chimney (Slovene: Trboveljski dimnik) is the tallest chimney in Europe. The 360 m (1,200 ft) high chimney of the Trbovlje coal power plant on the shore of the river Sava near Trbovlje, Slovenia, was built in 1976 to spread the pollution of Trbovlje and other towns in the valleys of the Zasavje region over a much larger area of Central Slovenia, instead of concentrating it in a small, single spot.
