The television tower, or Fernsehturm, is the large radio tower in the heart of Berlin. Located on Alexanderplatz, it is a striking symbol of the of the former East Germany and the second tallest structure in Europe.

Waldo is the name I and others have given to the TV tower since it is crowned with a red and white stripe tower–like the famous hat of the character Waldo in the illustrated book of Where’s Waldo.
