The Petersberg telecommunications tower was built from 1963 to 1965 by the Deutsche Post on Petersberg near Halle next to the existing directional radio tower ( A tower ).
The reason for its construction was the expansion and transmission improvement of the directional radio link Südwestring (Berlin-Roitzsch-Petersberg-Kulpenberg-Brocken / Berlin-Roitzsch-Petersberg-Kulpenberg-Erfurt-Inselsberg-Bleßberg). Since the takeover by the Deutsche Bundespost , later by Deutsche Telekom and then by the Deutsche Funkturm , the telecommunications tower has been operated to distribute the several radio programs for the greater Halle (Saale) area . Media Broadcast is the broadcasting company . In general, the location of the telecommunications tower is also referred to as a hall (Wallwitz-Petersberg) .
