Grünten transmitter, Television tower at Rettenberg, Germany

The Grünten transmitter stands at an elevation of 1691 meters in the Oberallgäu region, serving as a broadcasting facility for television and radio signals.

The tower became an essential part of Bavaria's broadcasting infrastructure when Bayerischer Rundfunk established it as a primary transmission point for the region.

The transmitter shares its location with a memorial dedicated to German mountain troops, combining technological advancement with historical remembrance.

Access to the transmitter facility is restricted to maintenance personnel, who reach the site via a private cable car system from Rettenberg.

The structure's position on Grünten mountain allows signals to reach across the Bavarian Alps, making it a central node for communication in southern Germany.
