    The Nuremberg telecommunications tower, which is also called the “Nuremberg Egg” because of its egg-shaped tower cage, was built between 1977 and 1980 according to plans by the architect Erwin Heinle. It is the tallest building in Bavaria and is the third tallest television tower in Germany after the Berlin and Frankfurt towers. (Wikipedia)

        The Nuremberg radio tower, which is also called the "Nuremberg Egg" because of its egg-shaped tower basket, was built between 1977 and 1980 according to plans by the architect Erwin Heinle. The structural engineer was Fritz Leonhardt.[1] It is the tallest building in Bavaria and the third tallest television tower in Germany after the Berlin and Frankfurt towers. The radio tower, built between July 12, 1977 (laying of the foundation stone) and August 8, 1980 (opening), reaches a total height of 292.80 meters (observation floor at 185 meters, operating rooms at 197 and 205 meters) with a total built mass of 23,000 tons.

        The current height has been in effect since the last replacement of the tower top for the switchover from analogue to digital terrestrial television DVB-T in the Nuremberg metropolitan area on 8 and 9 April 2005.

        The tower basket is almost 50 metres high and has a diameter of 32 metres.
