The tower was built in 1905 to supply drinking water for what was then the "medical and nursing home for the weak and idiotic children", which was located on the extensive grounds.
Today it serves as a base for several environmental associations (NABU, NVL, beekeepers' association) and is home to bats, as well as kestrels, jackdaws, barn owls and tawny owls that have been breeding there in recent years.
