This is the Höhbeck transmitter (radio mast Gartow 2, a transmission tower on the Höhbeck hill in Lower Saxony). The tower has nothing to do with Wittenberge (Brandenburg), as the title incorrectly suggests. The 344-meter-high tower was built between 1977 and 1979 and served as a radio link between West Berlin and West Germany before reunification.
