Sender Westerland, Radio and television tower in Westerland, Germany.
The Sender Westerland concrete tower rises 90 meters above the island of Sylt, marking the northernmost transmission point in Germany.
Established in 1976 by Deutsche Bundespost, the tower replaced a smaller transmitter that stood on Stephanstraße to meet growing communication demands.
The tower serves as a central communication hub for the North Frisian Islands, transmitting public television channels and maritime weather reports.
Five FM transmitters operate within the structure, providing coverage to 70,000 people across the northern Frisian islands and sections of the Danish coast.
The tower maintains communication services for police, taxi operations, and fire departments while broadcasting signals that reach Danish island Rømø.
