Fernmeldeturm Waghäusel, Telecommunications tower in Wiesental district, Waghäusel, Germany.
The Fernmeldeturm Waghäusel stands 131 meters tall, constructed with reinforced concrete and featuring three distinct platforms at different heights for operational purposes.
Built in 1971 under the supervision of architects Fritz Leonhardt and Erwin Heinle, this tower belongs to a series of five similar structures commissioned by the Federal Post Office.
The tower represents a period when telecommunications infrastructure expanded across Germany, marking the advancement of communication networks in the Baden-Württemberg region.
The structure contains multiple floors, including a workshop, storage areas, and technical equipment rooms, with the second floor dedicated to telecommunications technology.
This tower belongs to the rare FMT 6 series, distinguished by its smaller operating floor compared to later tower designs in German telecommunications architecture.
