Achievement Pillars
Achievement Pillars are Noita's in-game representation of achievements located in the world above the Giant Tree. There are six pillars, making up 76 pieces total, each representing something that you've achieved or discovered during previous playthroughs. As you unlock more achievements, the pillars will stack up higher and higher. Note that unlocked sections will not appear mid-run and only appear in future games.
Unlike Steam and GOG Achievements, the achievement pillars can be unlocked while playing with mods.
In the following list, the pillars are listed left-to-right. Entries appear bottom-to-top on the pillars. The order of pillar pieces is not dependent on the order they are unlocked in.

Records
It is known to be possible to achieve 63 of the pieces in a single run, from a fresh install, if one uses the Sampo Atlas tool and follows a rough plan derived from theorycrafting notes by Letaali. See DunkOrSlam's ~26 hour Twitch recording (in-game time of 19:15:43).
