Kiiu Tower

Kiiu (German: Kida) tower is a medieval defensive tower house of a type found also elsewhere in the Baltic region and sometimes referred to as a "vassal castle". This type of fortification was not intended to be used in any major military operations. Other examples in Estonia include Vao tower and Purtse Castle.

Kiiu tower was probably built around 1520 by the local lord of the manor Fabian von Tiesenhausen. Originally the tower was surrounded by a limestone wall and outbuildings, forming a courtyard. The tower itself is conical and four storeys high. Only the second storey was intended to be used as living quarters in times of war or unrest. On this floor, a bed alcove is found in the wall, as well as a fireplace and latrine which are also present on the other storeys. All the other storeys had purely defensive purposes, including embrasures of 11 different shapes, and were connected by a spiral staircase running through the thick wall. The reconstructed hoarding that surrounds the third storey is unique in Estonia.

History

Early beginnings

These call letters were first selected by Tony Rodriguez son of Spanish Radio Pioneer Marcos Rodriguez, Sr. and assigned to 104.9 FM in Pilot Point. Tony Rodriguez made the frequency famous in the early 1990s by being the first radio station in America to play All Beatles music. Tony later sold KTCY 104.9 to his brother Marcos A. Rodriguez.

Liberman Broadcasting, a Spanish-language media company, bought out some of Entravision's radio assets on August 4, 2006. Before KTCY-FM was bought by Liberman Broadcasting, the station played the same Spanish-language pop music but with different DJs and programming.
