Kyiv TV Tower, Television tower in Kyiv, Ukraine
The steel structure rises 385 meters into the sky, featuring a central core of 4 meters diameter that contains two maintenance elevators.
The tower, completed in 1973 at a cost of 12 million dollars, was originally designed for Moscow but authorities decided to construct it in Kyiv.
The construction site occupies the former grounds of Lukianivka Jewish cemetery, which closed in 1966, raising discussions about heritage preservation.
The structure functions as the main broadcasting facility for television and radio signals across the Kyiv region, operating through specialized transmission equipment.
The tower stands as the first completely welded tower worldwide, constructed without rivets except for the base attachments.
