Fernmeldeturm Rostock, Telecommunications tower in Stadtweide district, Rostock, Germany.

The concrete Fernmeldeturm Rostock extends 140 meters into the sky, featuring a central shaft designed for broadcasting and signal transmission purposes.

Deutsche Post constructed this telecommunications tower between 1968 and 1969, establishing it as one of the first concrete radio towers in East Germany.

From 1973 until the late 1980s, the tower contained an observation deck at 102 meters, allowing visitors to see the Danish coastline in clear weather.

The structure currently operates exclusively for mobile telecommunications after ceasing traditional radio and television broadcasting operations in August 2014.

A smaller communication tower stands nearby, complementing the main structure and continuing operations that date back to the German Democratic Republic period.
