Brotjacklriegel transmitter, Communications tower in Bavaria, Germany
The Brotjacklriegel transmitter is a concrete tower on a mountain in Bavaria used for radio and television broadcasting. The structure is built from solid concrete and dominates the mountain outline.
The transmitter was built in the mid-20th century to improve radio coverage in the region. Since then it has undergone several technical upgrades to meet increasing broadcasting demands.
The transmitter is part of the communication infrastructure that has shaped daily life in the region for decades. Many visitors to the mountain connect the sight of the tower with their memories of this place.
The best time to visit is in clear weather when views from the mountain are good. The concrete tower itself is generally not open to visitors, but a separate observation tower nearby offers viewpoint access.
The transmitter shares the mountain ridge with a separate observation tower managed by the Bavarian Forest Club and open to the public. These two structures together form a recognizable landmark in the landscape.
