King Baudouin Tower, Television and observation tower in Plombières, Belgium.
The King Baudouin Tower rises 50 meters above the Belgian section of Vaalserberg, featuring both an outdoor metal staircase and an elevator for visitors.
Built in 1970 with parts from French radar stations at 33 meters, the tower was reconstructed in 1993 to reach its current height of 50 meters.
The structure bears the name of King Baudouin, who led Belgium through four decades of modernization from 1951 until his death in 1993.
The tower provides viewing platforms that allow visitors to observe the convergence point of three countries: Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands.
Located at 329.44 meters altitude, the structure integrates components from two separate decommissioned French radar stations into its construction.
