Exelberg Telecommunication Tower, Television tower in Klosterneuburg, Austria.
The Exelberg Telecommunication Tower is a 109-meter-tall concrete structure built on Exel Mountain in Klosterneuburg, standing at around 513 meters above sea level. The facility continues to function as a broadcasting station for radio and television signals serving the surrounding region.
The tower was built in 1979 and represented an important step forward in broadcasting technology for the Vienna metropolitan area. Its construction at this elevated location was made possible by advances in concrete engineering that allowed for greater heights and structural stability.
The structure, known locally as Richtfunkstation Exelberg, represents the technical development of Austrian broadcasting infrastructure in the late 20th century.
The tower sits on a hilltop, making it easy to spot from higher-lying areas in the surroundings. Visitors should know that this is an active broadcast facility, so close access may be restricted.
The tower's strategic position on Exel Mountain enables signal distribution across multiple regions while maintaining technical reliability throughout varying weather conditions.
