The State Radio House of Lower Saxony (German: Landesfunkhaus Niedersachsen) is a group of buildings owned by the public broadcaster Norddeutscher Rundfunk in Hanover, the state capital of Lower Saxony, Germany.
The broadcaster is based in Hamburg, but has facilities in the capitals of other states that it serves. The building group is situated at the Rudolf von Bennigsen Esplanade on the eastern shore of the Maschsee. When it was built in 1949–1952, it was known as the Hanover Radio House (Funkhaus Hannover). In addition to administrative buildings and an antenna tower, it includes two halls for public concerts: the large broadcasting hall (Großer Sendesaal) opened in 1963, and the small broadcasting hall (Kleiner Sendesaal).[1]
