Deutschlandfunk-Funkhaus, Broadcasting complex in Marienburg, Germany

The Deutschlandfunk-Funkhaus rises 102 meters into the air with 19 floors, forming a substantial structure in the Cologne broadcasting district.

Architect Gerhard Weber designed this broadcasting center, which opened its doors in 1978 as the new headquarters for German national radio.

The building functions as the central facility for Deutschlandfunk, producing radio programs and hosting media events for German-speaking audiences.

Multiple broadcasting studios, technical facilities, and office spaces occupy the tower, enabling simultaneous production of numerous radio programs.

The building's upper three floors feature a suspended crown design that creates an illusion of floating above the main structure.
