九塔寺九頂塔

山東濟南

位於山東省濟南市歷城區柳埠村東南九塔寺遺址。建於唐天寶(742~756)至大曆年間(766~779)。該塔基本上屬於單層塔,但塔頂又建九個小塔,形制特殊,是中國僅存孤例,九頂之名亦由此而來。一九八八年隨千佛崖造像整體列為中國「全國重點文物保護單位」。
 該塔為八角單層亭閣式磚塔,通高13.3公尺,分塔身、塔頂兩部分。塔身呈八角內弧形,分上下兩段,各占一半;下段素平無飾,上段磨磚精砌。上段南面設拱門通塔心室,塔室頂部有天花藻井,四壁尚殘存壁畫。塔檐由平磚疊澀十七層挑出,檐上內收,每面弦邊內弧。塔頂八角,上面砌平如台,上置九塔,正中一座較大,八隅各一座則較小,皆為方形三層密檐式。
 該塔造型最特殊處在其繁簡對比和凹弧處理。如上部豐繁,下部簡化,對比鮮明。又利用內凹的弧線弧面,使造型變得生動,如八角塔身各面均內凹,檐部和塔頂也向內凹,使檐角有類似起翹的微妙效果。
