The Sentech Tower, previously named the Albert Hertzog Tower and commonly known as the Brixton Tower,[3] is a 237-metre-high (778 ft) concrete television tower in the Brixton suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa, near the top of the Brixton Ridge.[6] It is a well-known and easily identifiable landmark in the city, alongside its "architectural cousin", the Hillbrow Tower.[1][2][3][4][5]
Although always intended for both radio and television transmission, it carried only FM radio transmissions until the 1970s.
