Fernmeldeturm Weilerskopf

Fernmeldeturm Weilerskopf, Communication tower near Bad Dürkheim, Germany

The Fernmeldeturm Weilerskopf is a 130.7-metre telecommunications tower of the standard FMT 2 type, completed in 1969. It stands on the Gemarkung of an exclave of the municipality of Herxheim am Berg in Rhineland-Palatinate. The tower now carries only mobile and directional radio links.

The tower was built in 1969 by Deutsche Bundespost as part of expanding telecommunications infrastructure in the region. Its location was selected to serve mobile communications needs for the Bad Dürkheim area.

The tower's name comes from the Weilerskopf, the hill in the Herxheim am Berg exclave where it stands. Its DAB transmissions once carried the Ludwigshafen L-band Block LB at 1 kW ERP, the area's main DAB outlet; that transmitter has since been switched off.

The tower stands on an exclave of the municipality of Herxheim am Berg, not in the town itself, so approach via the surrounding forest tracks. It is an operating radio site with no visitor facilities or viewing platform; the structure is seen from outside. Broadcasting from the site is limited to mobile and directional radio, and the former DAB transmitter has been switched off.

The tower is a standard FMT 2 design, a prefabricated type used by Deutsche Bundespost for many similar sites. Its DAB transmitter, the main one for the Ludwigshafen L-band block LB, ran at 1 kW ERP and has since been switched off, so the mast now carries only mobile and directional radio.
