The Berlin TV Tower is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks, full of rich history and yes, it still functions as a smooth broadcast facility. Today, it stands as a symbol of a unified East and West Germany as one democratic country. Here’s what to know about the TV Tower before a visit.
Back in the 50s, the GDR intended to construct a tower to facilitate broadcast television and radio. Under architect Hermann Henselmann, the Berlin TV Tower came into existence. While construction of the tower went relatively smoothly, it was the massive sphere -- weighing about 4,800 tons -- that posed a challenge to hoist right on top. Approximately 8,000 cubic meters of concrete was used to construct the shaft which towers at a height of 248.78 m; in totality, the tower measures about 368 m in height. It was finally completed in 1969. The Berlin TV Tower is the tallest building in Germany and one of the tallest in the EU!
Approximately 1,000,000 guests visit the Berlin TV Tower’s observation deck each year! Once you get onto the elevator, you’ll reach the observation deck in less than 60 seconds. As you step onto the deck, you’ll be greeted by a magnificent 360º panoramic view of Berlin’s landscape. Use the telescopes (simply by inserting a coin) to gaze out ahead and spot popular landmarks in the city, such as the Reichstag Parliament building, Tempelhof airport, Olympic Stadium and Bradenburg Gate, among others; you can also view the countryside and spot some tall wind turbines. Display panels have been set up on the observation deck that will help you identify key landmarks. Don’t miss out on the captivating view from the Berlin TV Tower.
Situated about 207 m above ground, the Sphere Restaurant is the highlight of a visit to the Berlin TV Tower. Guests can have breakfast, lunch or dinner meals here. The elaborate menus include dishes from local and continental cuisines, including delicious Norwegian steaks and child-friendly meals. The ambiance is a mix of retro and contemporary chic, perfectly complementing the spectacular view outside the window. The cherry on top? On its own axis, the restaurant rotates once every hour! Ensure that you book your table in advance as this revolving restaurant in Berlin is extremely popular and you might not get a good table. A benefit of pre-booking tickets online is that you get priority access to the lifts.
