Halle Radio Tower, Radio tower in Halle (Saale), Germany

The Halle Radio Tower is a free-standing steel lattice tower on Dieselstraße in Halle (Saale), built in 2005 by Steffens & Nölle GmbH for Deutsche Telekom. German sources give its height as 160.5 metres, the English Wikipedia article as 150 metres; it is the second-tallest free-standing steel lattice tower in Germany built for radio purposes, after the Leipzig tower.

The tower was completed in 2005 and marked the shift toward digital terrestrial television broadcasting in Germany. Its construction supported the modernization of regional broadcasting infrastructure in Saxony-Anhalt.

The tower's name in German, Funkturm Halle, simply means "Halle radio tower". Its Dieselstraße site has been rented by Deutsche Funkturm, a Deutsche Telekom subsidiary, from EVH GmbH, a Stadtwerke Halle subsidiary, under a 20-year lease that was not renewed in October 2025. The Medienanstalt Sachsen-Anhalt warned that switching the tower off would end DVB-T2 reception by room or outdoor aerial in Halle and its immediate surroundings.

The tower stands at Dieselstraße in Halle (Saale); the site is a fenced technical facility, so the mast itself is not open to visitors. It is best viewed from public streets and open spaces in the surrounding area. The 20-year lease between Deutsche Funkturm and EVH GmbH for the Dieselstraße site was not renewed in October 2025, so the tower's future operation is uncertain.

The tower's 20-year lease with Deutsche Funkturm was not renewed in October 2025. The Medienanstalt Sachsen-Anhalt warned that shutting it down would end DVB-T2 reception via room or outdoor antennas in Halle and the immediate area, and remove a broadcast path usable for warnings during disasters, blackouts or cyberattacks.
