Sendeanlagen auf dem Großen Feldberg

The broadcasting facility on Großer Feldberg comprises multiple transmission towers positioned at 879 meters elevation on the mountain summit, distributing technical signals across the entire region. The installation houses different antenna systems standing side by side that provide various radio and telecommunications services.

The original television tower was constructed in 1937 and was destroyed during World War II. Reconstruction took place between 1950 and 1951 and has shaped the mountain's appearance since then.

The broadcasting facility has shaped the landscape view for decades and is visible from many directions across the region. It represents how modern communication infrastructure became woven into the natural environment.

The mountain ridge offers strong reception conditions for all transmitted services across the region. The location is surrounded by hiking trails and can be reached on foot.

The site brings together three different transmission systems: a telecommunications tower, an HR broadcasting mast, and a former observation tower with antenna mounting. This combination of different technologies in a single location reflects the long history of communication development at this strategic point.
