Televisietoren Mierlo, Television tower in Geldrop-Mierlo, Netherlands.
The Televisietoren Mierlo rises 123 meters into the sky, featuring an 86-meter concrete structure topped with a 40-meter transmission mast.
Construction of the tower began on July 1, 1955, under architect Anton Auer's design, serving as a relay station for television broadcasts from Hilversum to Roermond.
The tower represents the evolution of Dutch broadcasting, marking the transition from early television distribution to modern telecommunications infrastructure.
Current operations include FM radio transmission for stations like Omroep Brabant, BNR Nieuwsradio, and NPO Radio 1 across the region.
The structure's location on Molenheide was specifically chosen to compensate for Earth's curvature in signal transmission during the 1950s.
