The Prime Tower, also named "Maag-Tower" in an earlier stage of planning, is a skyscraper in Zürich, Switzerland. At a height of 126 metres (413 ft), it was the tallest building in Switzerland from 2011 until 2015, when the Roche Tower in Basel (standing at 178 m (584 ft)) was completed.

The building is located near the Hardbrücke railway station in Zürich West of the Industriequartier. The tower replaced an industrial facility.

According to its developers, the tower's construction, which took 15 years to plan and execute, was a financial success, with its valuation based on lease rates exceeding the construction cost by CHF 110 million.[3]

A webcam on top of the building offers a 360° view of Zürich.[6]
