Sender Feldberg

Sender Feldberg consists of two transmission towers of different ages located on a mountaintop in the Black Forest region. The newer steel structure stands approximately 82 meters tall while the older concrete tower reaches about 75 meters, both positioned at roughly 1,481 meters elevation.

The original transmission tower was built in 1955 by Südwestfunk and broadcast signals across the region for decades. In 2003 a new tower took over transmission duties, allowing the older structure to be repurposed as a museum and event venue.

The older tower has housed a museum dedicated to Black Forest ham production since 2013. The building also serves as a wedding venue, connecting visitors to regional food traditions and local heritage.

The site is accessible by road up the mountain and offers wide views across the landscape from its elevation. Visitors should prepare for changeable weather conditions at this height and wear sturdy footwear when exploring the area.

Visitors can enter the building and experience views of the surrounding landscape from inside. Few realize that civil ceremonies can take place on the eleventh floor, making it one of the highest wedding venues in the region.
