    Hiking

    Is mainly called Kälberberg Sender and is still visible in Bamberg. At the beginning of August the residents hold the annual tower festival. Is very recommendable with light music, beer and Franconian specialties. Unfortunately like so much - canceled in 2020 due to Corona. Hopefully it will work again in 2021!

    Hiking

    In 2008, the radio tower also broadcast the analogue television programs of ZDF, Bayerisches Fernsehen and several private broadcasters. After the switchover to the broadcast of the digital DVB-T signal, the analogue television programs were switched off. The radio tower still serves as a VHF transmitter for the analogue radio programs of Radio Bamberg and Antenne Bayern.
