TV and radio broadcast tower on the Brotjacklriegel

There is a Brotjacklriegel on the television and radio broadcasting tower of the Bavarian Radio and a smaller observation tower of the Bavarian Forest Association .

The forecast according to the Brotjacklriegel its name to a baker, the bread-Jackl owe, located in the Thirty Years' War is said to have hidden on the mountain.
