Melibokus

A strange Latin name for this mountain of the Odenwald overlooking the Rhine Valley. The original tower was blown up in by two 18-year-olds when the Allied Forces arrived at the end of the second world war. The US Arm put a radio mast on the site and used it for many years as a radio relais station. Today it is used for internet purposes and more importantly, as a marker for air traffic control.
