Below: The 4,170-foot (1,270-meter) peak of Mt. Wellington is one of Hobart’s most famous landmarks. The transmission tower perched atop Mount Wellington has a sharp structure punctuating an otherwise natural landscape. It has been looking over the city for more than 50 years, but little is known about the tower itself.
