Swisscom-Sendeturm St. Chrischona, Telecommunication tower in Basel-Stadt, Switzerland
The Swisscom-Sendeturm St. Chrischona reaches a height of 250 meters, consisting of a 152-meter concrete base and a 98-meter steel antenna structure.
Construction of the current tower took place from 1980 to 1984, replacing a 136-meter lattice tower that had served the area since 1962.
The tower functions as a central broadcasting point for television and radio programs throughout northwestern Switzerland, connecting diverse communities across the region.
Two water tanks within the structure, each holding 100 cubic meters, supply drinking water to the municipality of Bettingen.
The tower incorporates a three-leg design that stabilizes the structure against strong winds and seismic activity in the Basel-Stadt region.
