Fernsehturm Angelburg, Communication tower in Schelder Wald, Germany

The Angelburg Television Tower stands at 171 meters tall, constructed from concrete and located on Mount Angelburg at an elevation of 609 meters.

The tower commenced operations in 1968 as a primary network transmitter and remained the highest structure in the Lahn-Dill district until 2011.

The structure broadcasts twelve public television channels and one FM radio program, serving as a central communication point for the Hesse region.

Access to the operations floor at 48 meters is provided through 678 stairs or an elevator, though the facility remains closed to public visitors.

In October 2020, technicians removed the upper section using a transport helicopter, reducing the total height by 15 meters following DVB-T1 transmitter deactivation.
