Longinus Tower
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Longinus_Tower an entity of type: WikicatTowersInGermany
Der Longinusturm ist ein 32 Meter hoher Aussichtsturm auf dem Westerberg (188,7 m ü. NHN), der höchsten Erhebung der im nordrhein-westfälischen Westmünsterland gelegenen Baumberge. Er steht unweit von Baumberg, einer Bauerschaft der im Kreis Coesfeld gelegenen Gemeinde Nottuln. Der Turm wurde vom Baumberge-Verein zwischen 1897 und 1900 errichtet. Als Baumaterial diente Baumberger Kalksandstein, der noch heute in nahen Steinbrüchen abgebaut wird. Vom Turm bietet sich die Aussicht zum Beispiel in die Baumberge und die Westfälische Bucht.

The Longinus Tower (Longinusturm) is a 32-metre-high observation tower located in Nottuln, Germany. It was erected by the Baumberge Club between 1897 and 1901 on the summit of the 182.61-metre-high Westerberg hill. The Longinus Tower is made of calcareous sandstone. At the beginning of the 1950s, the Longinus Tower was adapted to become a telecommunication tower with an observation deck and antenna systems that rather spoilt its appearance architecturally. In 1992 a wind measurement system was installed on the top of the tower. In 1993 and 1994 two wind turbines were built nearby.

The Longinus Tower (Longinusturm) is a 32-metre-high observation tower located in Nottuln, Germany. It was erected by the Baumberge Club between 1897 and 1901 on the summit of the 182.61-metre-high Westerberg hill. The Longinus Tower is made of calcareous sandstone. At the beginning of the 1950s, the Longinus Tower was adapted to become a telecommunication tower with an observation deck and antenna systems that rather spoilt its appearance architecturally. It was from the Longinus Tower that, in 1952, Reinhold Holtstiege, transmitted the first public television programmes after World War II. As it had no connection to the grid, the transmitter was powered by a transformer from a car battery. Later the Longinus Tower was used as TV transmitter. But its relatively low height was not enough to meet the demand, and so a 182-metre-high, steel tube mast was built in the vicinity, guyed at 70 and 143 metres.In 2005 this mast was replaced by a 181.2-metre-high, steel lattice mast, guyed at 3 levels – 47, 97 and 147 metres – as the old mast was unable to carry antennas for digital TV. In 1992 a wind measurement system was installed on the top of the tower. In 1993 and 1994 two wind turbines were built nearby.
