    Hiking

    On the 433-meter-high Sommerrankenberg near the Magdalenenkappel district of Burgebrach, Deutsche Telekom AG operates the 153-meter-high Burgwindheim transmitter (also known as the Burgwindheim 1 radio transmission point) for VHF, mobile communications and directional radio.

    A concrete support attachment with a tubular steel support is used as the antenna support. The foundation diameter is 20 meters. The shaft length of the transmitter is 128 meters high. At a height of 100 m, 108 m, 116 m and 120 m, the tower has platforms for mobile communications and directional radio antennas.

    The Burgwindheim telecommunications tower now serves as a relay station for radio and mobile communications and as a transmitter for VHF radio programs. The analogue television programs broadcast from here until 2008 were switched off after switching to the digital DVB-T signal.
