妙道寺雙塔

山西臨猗

位於山西省運城市臨猗縣城北隅。據西塔地宮出土石碑記載,西塔建於北宋熙寧二年(1069);東塔形制結構與西塔近似,修建年代應相距不遠。明嘉靖三十四年(1555),西塔塔剎毀於地震,萬曆二十三年(1595)重修塔基。雙塔相距80餘公尺,西塔原屬妙道寺內建築,東塔在寺外,今寺已毀,僅存雙塔。二○○六年列為中國「全國重點文物保護單位」。
 雙塔東西對峙,皆為方形樓閣式磚塔,高約40餘公尺。東塔坐東朝西,七層,第一層西面闢拱券門,內有佛龕。第一、二層檐下設仿木構磚雕斗栱,第三至七層則以疊澀磚挑出塔檐,第三、四層西面各隱出拱券門。第五、六、七層四面均以兩根間柱,將每面分為三間,西面各隱出一個拱券門和兩個直櫺窗。
 西塔坐西朝東,原九層,現存六層。第一層中空,內設樓梯,以上各層則為實心。第一層東面闢拱券門。第二層以上每面均設兩根間柱,將每面分為三間,當心間隱出拱券門,兩次間隱出直櫺窗。第一層塔檐下有仿木構磚雕斗栱,餘各層皆以菱角牙子磚及平磚疊澀挑出塔檐。西塔地宮出土文物二十餘件,有銀棺、石函等。
