The Fernmeldeturm Berlin-Schäferberg erected from 1961 to 1964 is a telecommunication Tower and closed to the public. It stands upon the Schäferberg in the southwest of Berlin.
The Fernmeldeturm Berlin-Schäferberg is 212 m (695 ft) high, the shaft alone is 187 m (613 ft). At the height between von 101.6 m to 132.44 m some operating (or service?) floors are located, equipped with devices mainly for the use of directed radio relay transmissions.
In the time from 1964 until the early 1990s this telecommunications tower was mainly used for trans-horizon relay transmissions to west germany with the counter-stations Torfhaus in the Harz and Clenze in the Lüneburger Heide).
For this purpose the tower was equipped with two parabolic antennas with 30 m (96 ft) in diameter mounted on its shaft, which were dismantled in 1996, because of these antennas the shaft had to be constructed considerably more stable than other telecommunication towers of similar size, like the Florianturm in Dortmund or the Stuttgarter Fernsehturm.
Next th the Fernmeldeturm Berlin-Schäferberg existed another tower, constructed as freestanding steel framework tower, which also carried 30m parabolic antennas for trans-horizon radio relays. This tower has been dismantled completely.
Now the Fernmeldeturm Berlin-Schäferberg is only used for his formerly secondary use, the broadcast of TV and radio programmes in the 87 to 108 MHz range.
from the year 2001 this tower is also used for transmission in the 1485 kHz band. but since the tower was not built for this initially a long-wire-antenna had to be installed.
