Don't know if this was unusual - but spectacular for sure:
In Riga - collapse of St. Peter's church tower in 1666. It was the highest wooden building in world - 136 m high, the tower was built in late 1400ies. It collapsed due to its age - falling over densely built city.
Nearby Dom church in late 1400ies built 140 m high tower, but after the collapse of St. Peter's city required to make Dom church lower as well. Now it's "only" 90 m high.

Picture: St. Peter's tower was rebuilt to lower height - 132 m - in 18th century. In 1941 Russians burned it down, it fell over the city again. In 1970ies it was rebuilt again
