Potzberg tower, Radio and observation tower on Potzberg mountain, Föckelberg, Germany.
The stone-built Potzberg Tower rises 53.5 meters above the North Palatine Uplands, providing telecommunications services and public viewing access.
Construction of the Potzberg Tower was completed in 1951 after just 39 working days, featuring a broadcasting aerial that operated until 1993.
The tower stands on Potzberg mountain, which earned the name 'King of the Westrich' due to its prominent position in the regional landscape.
Visitors can climb 165 wooden steps to reach the observation platform, offering views across the North Palatine Uplands region.
The mountain beneath the tower contains numerous historical mercury mining tunnels and entrances from operations that ceased in 1866.
