Telemax

Telemax

:"Telemax" is also the name of a television network in Mexico. For that article, see Telemax (television network)."

The Telemax is a telecommunication tower built from 1988 to 1992 in Hanover. The tower was designed by Hans U. Boeckler and is 272 meters (892 feet) high. The tower stands on a 10 meter high base building, which brings its overall height to 282 meters (925 feet). Deutsche Telekom operates the tower.

There is no observation deck on the Telemax. The building is of architectural interest due to its square surfaces. In 1997, Boeckler received cement-steel prize "Die Kunst des Bewehrens" for the tower's truss structure.

Originally a substantially slimmer round tower was planned. However, when the plans were submitted for approval, the inscription Model Hamburg was allegedly still written on the plan. It was decided that only a Model Hanover was appropriate for the state capital the planning of the telecommunication tower had to begin again.

The Telmax is in city's Buchholz-Kleefeld district, which is about 8km (5 mi) from the city center. It can be from all over this part of the city, and is an obvious landmark. It can been seen from the highway from about 20 km (12.5 mi) away, from the A 2 near Lehrte, for example. The previous radio tower in the city was changed VW-Tower after this new tower went into service. The tower is illuminated in the corporate colors of the Deutsche Telekom AG (magenta) for special occasions, such as the Hannover Messe or CeBit.
