spired
Topped with pinnacles
Spired describes something that has a spire or spires—the tall, tapering structures that top churches and other buildings.
A spired skyline features pointed towers rising above the roofline.
The word appears mainly in literary or architectural contexts: the spired cathedrals of medieval Europe.
It can also describe things resembling spires: spired mountain peaks.
