The telecommunication towers of the former Deutsche Bundespost (today Deutsche Funkturm GmbH , a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom ) in reinforced concrete construction , which were specially designed for a special location, are called special towers . Special towers are usually higher than the type towers and almost always have a tourist area.

Almost all special towers have been built in the vicinity of large cities.

The Berlin television tower with its 368.03 meters and the Dresden television tower, which was also built in 1969, did not belong to the special tower class of the Deutsche Bundespost at the time of construction, as these were located in the GDR at the time of construction and were therefore built by Deutsche Post . After reunification, these were transferred to the Deutsche Bundespost or later the property of Telekom and Deutsche Funkturm.
