The Berlin TV Tower, constructed during the years 1965-69, was built out of the necessity to have a separate TV broadcasting system during the division of the German Wall. It is the only city TV Tower in Europe, and one of the highest buildings in Germany. It has become a very popular tourist destination, with the tower currently receiving over 1 million visitors a year. Visitors to the tower can enjoy a bird's eye view of Berlin, as well as dine at the famous revolving restaurant.
