location

The Engelberg is a mountain ridge around 4 km long and 2 km wide at the foot, which extends in a west-east direction. It is bounded in the north by the Aare , in the south by the Safenwil valley basin and the lower Wiggertal. To the west, the Engelberg drops steeply to the saddle of the Wartburghöfe. This hollow between the Säli and the Engelberg was created by a prehistoric run of the Wigger . The Engelberg has an approximately 400 m wide and 1.5 km long plateau, which is mainly made up of meadows; the steep slopes are covered with thick forest. The hamlet of Engelberg is located on the plateau .

geology

From a geological point of view, Engelberg and Born to the west form the southernmost anticline of the Folded Jura in the Olten region (Solothurn Jura) . The rock material of the Engelberg comes from marine sediments of the upper Jurassic period ( Malm limestone ), which were brought into their current position during the Jurassic folding in the late Miocene and Pliocene .

Buildings

On the Säli , the westernmost part of the ridge, there are two castles, the Alt-Wartburg and the Neu-Wartburg (also called Sälischlössli ).

Channel

Since 1974 there has been a 110.6 meter high transmission tower for radio relay, VHF and DAB in steel framework construction on the Engelberg ( position ).

Digital radio (DAB)

Since September 2017, digital radio according to the DAB standard has also been broadcast from this location . DAB is operated in vertical polarization in single-frequency mode with other transmitter locations.
