Ještěd, Mountain summit in Horní Hanychov, Czech Republic.
The Ještěd mountain reaches 1012 meters in elevation and features a distinctive television tower combining hotel and restaurant functions at its peak.
The original mountain accommodation from 1844 was replaced after a fire in 1963 by the current concrete structure, completed in 1973.
The tower structure received recognition as a national cultural monument in 2006 and gained a position on UNESCO's Tentative List in 2007.
Visitors can reach the summit by road transportation, while the mountain offers winter sports facilities including two professional ski jumping platforms.
The hyperboloid tower structure merges with the natural mountain silhouette and enables views extending into neighboring Poland and Germany.
