The transmitter Gummersbach is a transmitter of the West German Broadcasting Corporation on the Kerberg north of the city of Gummersbach . Until 2001, the transmitter used a free-standing tubular mast. This was replaced by a 50 meter high free-standing steel lattice tower. The old mast was then dismantled.

Today television for the region around Gummersbach is broadcast from this location.
