    The Riegelstein telecommunications tower is a 135 meter high telecommunications tower owned by Deutsche Funkturm. It is located on the summit plateau of the Hohe Reut between the two Betzenstein districts of Spies and Riegelstein in Franconian Switzerland. The telecommunications tower is now used for radio and mobile communications.

    Clearly visible from a distance, an eye-catcher. From the western edge of Schermshöhe, a narrow access road branches off from the BT 30, which leads up to the area of the radio tower site.
