Sender Bamberg

Sender Bamberg is a concrete transmission tower standing near Buttenheim on Wachknock hill. The structure rises approximately 127 meters above the surrounding area and transmits radio, television, and mobile phone signals for the region.

The tower was built in 1973 and has broadcast radio and television signals since its opening. It switched from analog to digital transmission in 2008 and continues operating as part of a larger transmission network.

The telecommunications tower represents an essential component of broadcasting infrastructure, enabling radio programs like Radio Bamberg to reach regional audiences.

The tower is not open to visitors and operates only as a transmission facility. You can view and photograph it from the surrounding area near the base of the hill.

The tower operates as part of the Deutsche Funkturm network and transmits signals at varying power levels depending on need. This makes it a flexible facility serving multiple communication purposes simultaneously.
