The Wavre radio transmitter is a facility for mediumwave, shortwave, FM and TV broadcasting near Wavre in Belgium. For the mediumwave transmissions it uses a grounded 250-metre high guyed mast. Furthermore there is a backup mast for medium wave transmissions, which is 90 metres high. For shortwave broadcasting several directional antennas and a curtain antenna are used. The towers are two of the tallest structures in Belgium.
For the FM/TV transmission a free standing lattice tower with a height of 232 metres is used. This tower whose top is guyed at four horizontal crossbars similar like Grodno TV Tower replaces the mast used for FM/TV transmissions which fell during a storm on October 13th, 1983.
