Voronezh TV-tower, Broadcasting tower in Voronezh, Russia.
The Voronezh TV-tower is a broadcasting tower in the city that serves as a major transmission facility for radio and television signals. Its concrete and steel structure rises prominently above the surrounding cityscape with equipment housed within for signal distribution across a wide region.
Construction of this tower began in the early 1960s and was completed in the mid-1960s as a modern broadcasting facility. It replaced an earlier transmission structure that had served the region since the 1920s.
The tower belongs to the Moscow branch of the Russian TV and Radio Broadcasting Network, serving approximately ten million people within its coverage area.
Visitors need to carry valid identification documents when planning to enter the tower premises. It is worth checking opening hours in advance and considering weather conditions, as access to higher levels may be affected by wind or storms.
From certain locations at considerable distance from the city, the upper portion of the tower can be spotted on the horizon under favorable visibility conditions. This far-reaching presence demonstrates how distinctly the structure rises above the flat terrain surrounding it.
