Sender Olsberg, Communication tower in Olsberg, Germany.
The 58-meter steel tower stands at 700 meters above sea level, featuring a tubular structure with varying diameters from 2.20 to 1.60 meters.
Constructed in 1984 by Westdeutscher Rundfunk, the tower was built to address radio coverage gaps in northern Sauerland and upper Ruhr Valley regions.
The tower transmits multiple radio programs, including WDR 2 and Deutschlandfunk Kultur, serving the North Rhine-Westphalia broadcasting community.
Located 430 meters south of Olsberg's peak, the structure facilitates FM radio transmission and digital broadcasting through the DAB standard.
The tower weighs 50 tons and operates within a single-frequency network, receiving programs through ball reception from Teutoburger Wald and Nordhelle transmitters.
