Cholfirst Radio Tower, Communication tower in Flurlingen, Switzerland

The Cholfirst Radio Tower rises 96 meters above ground level on Cholfirst Mountain, featuring a steel lattice construction with concrete reinforcement.

Visitors can climb 191 steps to reach the observation deck at 42 meters height, offering views of Neuhausen am Rheinfall and Schaffhausen.

The facility transmitted both analog and digital signals until 2019, when DVB-T operations ceased while radio broadcasting continued.
