history
A rock formation for calendar observation of the sun has come down to us from a prehistoric time . This rock formation is known today as the money trowel and serves as the basis of some legends. In addition, the remains of an approximately 3000-year-old ring wall, which once served to protect a Bronze Age settlement, are located on the mountain. For centuries the mountain served as a pasture for cattle and sheep, which is why it is also known as the sheep mountain. The fact that the mountain has only a few springs made it difficult to keep the animals. One of the few places where the mountain gave off some water was the trickle fountain , which was used as a trough . After 1850 it was no longer allowed to herd animals on the mountain. From 1936 there was an ammunition depot of the Löbauer barracks at the foot of the mountain, which was cleared after 1990. During World War II, there was an anti-aircraft observation tower on the summit.
Schafberg transmitter
In 1966, a steel lattice mast was erected on the Schafberg to broadcast the two GDR television programs. As of 1988, a new, 162 meter high reinforced concrete transmission tower for VHF, TV and radio relay has been owned by Deutsche Funkturm , a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom on the mountain. This was built in shell construction and with the help of a Mil-Mi-8 helicopter from Interflug.
The Löbauer transmission tower received a modernized antenna system in the course of the upcoming DVB-T introduction on June 11, 2007.
