Mulhouse-Belvédère transmission tower

The Mulhouse-Belvédère transmission tower is a 194 meter high freestanding steel lattice tower built in 1997 on the Belvedere mountain in the south-east of Mulhouse in Alsace. In contrast to the Tour du Belvedere, which gives it its name, the Mulhouse-Belvedere transmission tower is not open to the public. After the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Mulhouse-Belvédère transmission tower is the second highest non-guyed in France.

history

A transmission tower has existed at the site since the 1950s. This was originally 165 meters high, but was later increased to 187 meters. The towers were also designed as steel lattice towers and formed a base of three pillars. The self-supporting construction was chosen because the tower is located in a relatively densely populated area and therefore requires less space. The tower at that time had a red and white paint job for air traffic safety reasons.

In 1997 there was another revision, so that the current tower is 197 meters high. The original plan to raise the tower to a height of 220 to 250 meters was rejected due to objections from residents.

use

In addition to broadcasting radio and television signals, the transmission tower also serves to transmit data and calls from cell phone operators and as a radio relay station .
