Sender Högl, Communications tower in Anger, Bavaria, Germany
Sender Högl is a 157 meter tall transmission tower in Anger, Bavaria, standing on a hill at 778 meters elevation. The steel structure features multiple platforms equipped with directional antennas and broadcasting equipment.
The tower was built in 1969 by Deutsche Bundespost as a steel structure weighing 200 tons. It became a key transmission point for regional radio broadcasting in southern Bavaria and neighboring areas.
The tower broadcasts multiple radio stations that connect residents across the region through local and regional programming.
The tower is visible from the surrounding hillsides and serves a wide transmission area across the region. Visitors who wish to view the structure should note that it is located on private land with limited public access.
Between 2008 and 2010, the tower operated a special digital television service designed specifically for the neighboring Salzburg region. This cross-border project highlighted the importance of connectivity across regional boundaries.
