- Outline
- This 94-meter-high television tower stands on the summit of Ješčet Mountain in the Czech Republic. The hyperbolic surface was chosen to complement the conical shape of the mountaintop, and the tower is constructed of reinforced concrete to withstand the harsh weather conditions of heavy snowfall. The lower part of the tower is used as a hotel and restaurant.
