Perwenitzer Fernsehturm, Television tower in Schönwalde-Glien, Germany.
Perwenitzer Fernsehturm is a television tower in Schönwalde-Glien near Berlin and stands 135 meters tall. It features a four-story platform structure made of reinforced concrete that gives it its distinctive appearance.
This tower was built between 1956 and 1959 by VEB Spezialbau Leipzig as the second of ten structures expanding broadcasting across East Germany. It played a role in modernizing the region's communication infrastructure during the Cold War era.
The tower represents the technological advancement of East German broadcasting infrastructure during the late 1950s, marking a new era in mass communication.
This structure is located near the Autobahn 10 on Berlin's western outer ring and is easily visible from ground level. Access to the top is restricted as there is no public viewing platform available.
Although not a typical tourist destination, this tower became one of the tallest structures in the Havelland district when it was built. Today it primarily supports mobile phone transmission rather than its original television broadcasting function.
