Schlemmin TV Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schlemmin TV Tower is a TV tower of reinforced concrete southwest of Schlemmin, a village in the municipality of Bernitt in northern Germany. The tower was built in 1967. Until 1992 it was equipped with an observation deck and was 64 metres tall. It quickly became a well-known tourist attraction, and so in 1969 an inn was also built at its foot. In 1992 the tower got a large modernization: its culpit was replaced by a larger new culpit, and it got a new pinnacle, so its height grew to 94 metres. Unfortunately, it was closed to the public after these modernization measures; the inn was also demolished.
