Fernmeldeturm Ebbegebirge, Communication tower in Herscheid, Germany.
Fernmeldeturm Ebbegebirge is a concrete transmission tower rising 150 meters high on Waldberg mountain at an elevation of 635 meters. The facility carries mobile phone signals, digital radio broadcasts, and amateur radio operations across a wide region.
The German postal service built the tower in 1983 to expand telecommunications infrastructure across North Rhine-Westphalia. The structure supported the broadcasting network expansion that characterized that decade.
The tower represents the transformation of German broadcasting systems, transitioning from analog television signals to digital broadcasting formats in November 2007.
The tower sits on a hilltop in the region south of Dortmund and can be reached via local hiking trails. The area offers views and a quiet setting to explore the Bergisches Land region.
The facility hosts a relay station under the call sign DB0VR that connects amateur radio operators across many kilometers. This makes the tower a valued location for the radio operator community in the region.
