Novosibirsk TV Tower — Online Camera with Panoramic City View

History of the Novosibirsk TV Tower

Construction of the Novosibirsk television center began in 1956, and on May 20, 1957, the television tower was completed. The decision to build the television center was made at the highest state level as part of the post-war five-year plans. The Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 863 dated May 4, 1955, set the start of work. The metal tower was erected by installers from the Stalmontazh-3 trust using a self-raising crane controlled from the ground, based on a proposal by engineer S. G. Tretyakov. Since 1957, the tower on Rimsky-Korsakov Street has been the primary signal source for most TV and radio channels in the city.

Architecture and Technical Specifications

The height of the Novosibirsk TV tower together with the antenna is 198 meters (according to other sources — 192 meters), with a broadcast radius of 60 km. The tower walls are made of metal. It is a metal structure built in 1957. The lattice structure with an antenna at the top has become one of the key elements of the city's telecommunications infrastructure. The city has virtually no official observation decks, and the Novosibirsk TV tower is not open to tourists.

Neon Lighting of the TV Tower

On September 1, 2023, neon lighting was launched on the Novosibirsk TV tower, which turns on every day at dusk. The structure features 9,060 LED pixel lights, six spotlights, and a media facade at the 140 to 148 meter mark. Thanks to the lighting, the Novosibirsk TV tower has become one of the most visible objects in the city at night, and the online camera allows you to watch this spectacle from anywhere in the world.
