    “Mulleklenkes” is the name of the transmission tower in the Aachen Forest. It stands on the Karlshöher Hochweg and is 133 meters high.

      The transmission tower is the westernmost transmitter in Germany and is only a few meters from the German-Belgian border. The 133m high tower was completed in 1974. Structurally, it corresponds to a model that was built many times in Germany. Due to its location on the ridge above the Aachen valley, it forms a striking landmark from many corners in and around Aachen. The name "Mulleklenkes" - roughly the "chattering little finger" - couldn't be better chosen for a transmission tower :-)
