Fernmeldeturm Nürnberg
Encyclopedia : F : FE : FER : Fernmeldeturm Nürnberg
The Fernmeldeturm Nürnberg is the Nürnberg telecommunication tower, also called the Nuernberger Ei (Egg of Nuremberg) because of its egg-shaped tower basket in 185 metres, is 292 metres high and was built between 1975 and 1977. The tower basket accommodates transmission mechanisms for UKW and radio relay link and - unfortunately closed since 1991- a rotating restaurant and a prospect platform. Responsible operator is the DFMG German radio tower GmbH, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom based in Münster. From 22 January 2003 to 4 April 2003 the Nürnberg telecommunication tower also served for the spreading of the program of megaradio on mediumwave frequency 945 kHz. For this a wire antenna was strung along the tower shaft, from the top of the tower to the roof of an operating building near the tower.
