Europaturm

The Europaturm rises 331 meters into the sky with its concrete structure featuring a wide observation pulpit measuring 59 meters in diameter at 227 meters height.

Construction of the telecommunications tower began in 1974 under architect Johannes Möhrle, becoming the tallest structure in West Germany upon completion in 1979.

Frankfurt residents refer to the tower as Ginnemer Spaschel in their local dialect, despite its location in the Bockenheim district rather than Ginnheim.

The tower functions as a broadcasting facility for digital television signals, capable of transmitting twenty-four channels at 100 kilowatts each through its modern antenna system.

The foundation extends 18.5 meters into reinforced marl soil, while the shaft diameter reduces from twenty meters at the base to eleven meters below the observation level.
