Fernmeldeturm Schnaitsee, Communications tower in Schnaitsee, Germany.
Fernmeldeturm Schnaitsee is a concrete broadcasting tower standing near the village of Schnaitsee that transmits radio and television signals across the surrounding area. The structure carries multiple antennas and transmission equipment mounted at its top.
The tower was built in 1981 as a replacement for an older steel lattice mast and took over broadcasting duties for the region at that time. It has since served as key infrastructure for radio and television reception.
The tower represents technological advancement in rural Bavaria, marking the evolution of telecommunications infrastructure while maintaining distance from residential areas.
The tower stands near the village and is visible from local roads without needing to travel across private land to see it. The best views are from nearby walking paths that run through the rural landscape around it.
Following the installation of additional transmission equipment, local farmers reported changes in their cattle's milk production, attributing it to electromagnetic fields.
