Abstract
The radome in Raisting was built in 1963. The weather protection of the sensible equipment was realized by a spherical airdome with a hight of 39.50 m and a diameter of 48.80 m. With this aerial system telecommunication via satellite was made possible for the first time in Germany. The live broadcasting of the moon landing and the Olympic Games in 1972 were transmitted from here. The polyester fabric membrane had been in use till 2010. In 1999 the Bavarian department listed the radome as a "monument of national interest". From 2010 to 2011 an extensive restoration was arranged. The membrane was replaced using the existing connection details. The solid building with its details typical of the time, was restored taking all heritage requirements into consideration. The technical equipment was improved and energy-saving measures implemented.
