Sender Röbel-Woldzegarten

Sender Röbel-Woldzegarten is a 167-meter tall steel structure with red and white stripes for safety, located near Leizen in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The facility broadcasts radio and television signals across northern Germany to homes and cars in the region.

The transmission site started operations in 2000, replacing an older 80-meter mast that had served since 1991. Digital radio broadcasting began in November 2016, modernizing the facility with newer transmission technology.

The tower is a familiar landmark for people in the region, helping them navigate the local landscape. Residents rely on it daily to receive their preferred radio stations and television channels without thinking much about what makes this possible.

The tower sits on the southeastern slope of Dusterholz mountain at about 118 meters above sea level, making it visible from Leizen. You can view it from nearby walking paths without needing access to the facility grounds.

The mast was painted with red and white stripes following strict safety rules to warn aircraft and make the structure clearly visible. This distinctive pattern helps people recognize and locate the tower from various distances across the landscape.
