The longwave transmitter Raszyn is a longwave broadcasting transmitter near Raszyn, Poland. It was built in 1949. Its radio mast was at those days with a height of 335 metres the tallest structure in Europe.
The longwave transmitter Raszyn was until the inaugauration of Warsaw radio mast in Konstantynow the central longwave broadcasting of Poland.
Since 1978 from this facility during daytime a second program in the longwave range is transmitted on 198 kHz (Radio Parliament).
After the collapse of Warsaw radio mast in 1991 this facility was used until the inaugaration of the new longwave-transmitter Solec Kujawski for transmissions of the first program of the Polish Broadcasting Service on 225 kHz. Because there it is not possible to transmit from Raszyn on both longwave frequencies of the Polish Broadcasting Company simultanously, no transmissions on the second longwave frequency of the Polish Broadcasting Company (198 kHz) occured between 1991 and 1999.
The radio mast of the longwave transmitter Raszyn is since the collapse of the Warsaw radio mast the sixth tallest structure in Poland.
