Sender Weimar, Broadcasting tower in Ettersberg, Germany
Located on the elevated Ettersberg terrain, the Sender Weimar transmission tower reaches a height of 29 meters and operates as a broadcasting facility.
The broadcasting facility began operations in 1946 with two self-radiating transmitters, serving as a regional communication center in post-World War II Germany.
The transmission tower distributes multiple radio programs and digital television channels, connecting local communities through regional media and national broadcasts.
The facility transmits FM radio stations including MDR Thüringen and Radio Top 40, while also providing DAB radio programming through a single frequency system.
After German reunification, the eastern mast was removed in 2007, leaving only the western mast standing for continued broadcasting operations.
