Sites d'émission de la Croix de Guizay, Television tower and antenna complex in Le Guizay, France
The transmission site features two distinct towers: a 67-meter structure operated by Towercast and a 110-meter tower managed by TDF near Saint-Étienne.
The transmission facilities began operations in the 1950s, with analog television broadcasts continuing until their complete transition to digital in June 2011.
The transmission complex enables the distribution of 26 FM radio stations and multiple digital television channels throughout the Saint-Étienne metropolitan area.
While direct access to the transmission site remains restricted, visitors can observe the towers from various vantage points in Planfoy and La Ricamarie.
The site combines two separate broadcasting entities, TDF and Towercast, each operating independent towers for different transmission purposes within the same location.
