Sendeanlage Bisamberg, Radio transmitter in Floridsdorf, Austria
Sendeanlage Bisamberg is a radio transmission facility in Floridsdorf featuring operational buildings and former equipment sites across its grounds. The location preserves technical infrastructure and documentation that demonstrates how radio broadcasting was managed from this central point.
The original broadcasting station was built in 1933 with two lattice masts but was destroyed during World War II and rebuilt in 1959. This reconstruction was part of the broader revival of Austrian broadcasting infrastructure after the war.
This transmission facility represents the evolution of Austrian broadcasting technology, serving as a central communication point for radio programming throughout the region.
The preserved sender building contains technical equipment and records related to radio broadcasting history, accessible only by prior arrangement. Visiting works best when arranged in advance to ensure access to the equipment and documentation housed there.
From 1959 until 2010, a 265-meter transmission mast stood on this site, ranking among Austria's tallest structures before its controlled demolition. This mast was a prominent landmark that shaped the visual identity of the area and its technical capabilities.
