Visit Berlin TV Tower in Berlin | Book Berlin TV Tower Tickets 

Back in 1969, what was once built as a testament to Communist power, today 50 years later is a symbol of a unified Germany. The Berlin TV Tower, also known as the Berliner Fernsehturm, is an imposing landmark in the city, visible from almost every corner. The massive structure, weighing almost 30,000 tonnes, was initially constructed to be the primary facility of broadcast news by the German Democratic Republic (GDR); today, while it still stands as a television and radio broadcast tower, it is also one of the most popular attractions in Berlin, inviting almost 1,000,000 visitors a year. 

On a visit to the TV Tower, visitors go right up to the observation deck and soak in the breathtaking panoramic views of the city. Adding to the experience is a lovely restaurant at the top, where you can enjoy some delicious food with the city’s landscape as the perfect backdrop.

Berlin TV Tower Highlights

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.

berlin tv tower tickets

History & Construction

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!

Observation Deck

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.
