Sender Boppard, Telecommunication tower on Fleckertshöhe hill, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany

The Sender Boppard consists of two telecommunications structures, with the modern tower reaching a height of 123 meters supported by three steel legs.

The original tower, constructed in 1935, gained recognition as the first television tower worldwide and transmitted the 1936 Olympics broadcast.

The transmission facility represents German engineering excellence through its architectural design, combining both historical and contemporary broadcasting technologies.

The tower includes vertical shafts within its three supporting legs for cable management and maintenance access by technical personnel.

The structure underwent modifications in the 1990s, replacing its transmission aerial with a radome containing air traffic control radar equipment.
