All the information on the morphology, spectral index and polarization properties of low and intermediate luminosity radio galaxies were collected in an intermediate frequency range, and some of the basic questions to be elucidated with such measurements are still unanswered. We therefore decided to extend the study of their characteristics towards higher frequencies. From the B2 and 4C catalogue we selected 26 radio galaxies for which VLA or WSRT data are available. These sources were observed at 10.6 GHz using the Effelsberg 100-m telescope (Gregorini & al. 1992; Mack & al. 1994; Klein & al. 1995).
