Sender Nottuln, Radio transmitter in Nottuln, Germany.
The Sender Nottuln is a 181-meter-tall radio and television transmitter in Westphalia featuring a steel framework structure with multiple broadcasting platforms at different heights. The facility transmits digital radio formats including DAB and DAB+ along with digital television through DVB-T and DVB-T2 standards.
The original transmission mast was constructed between 1951 and 1952 by Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk and stood 113 meters tall with an integrated FM antenna. In 2005 the original structure was replaced with a new 181-meter steel construction to meet the demands of digital broadcasting.
The transmitter broadcasts radio and television programs for the Münsterland region, providing residents with access to local and national content. The facility connects listeners and viewers across surrounding communities with news and entertainment from the Westdeutscher Rundfunk Köln network.
The site sits in flat Westphalian countryside and is visible from various roads, though public access to the transmitter facility itself is restricted. Visitors can photograph the transmitter from outside and find good views of the structure from several vantage points in the surrounding area.
The transmitter's steel structure ranks among the most distinctive landmarks in the region and shapes the landscape view from many kilometers away. The technology allows it to distribute signals across a particularly large area of Westphalia, reaching even remote settlements with broadcast coverage.
