The small water tower, a landmark of Krefeld-Hüls, also affectionately known as the "turret", can be seen from afar. It is the second preserved water tower in Krefeld.

In 1905 the 45 m high Hulser water tower was built together with the water works. Already in the 1920s, the tower showed structural damage, so that in 1958 the magnificent container casing was replaced by a very ugly and simple Eternit cladding. Thanks to considerable efforts by the Hülser Heimatverein, this was removed and the tower was restored to its original condition. Today it is once again an urban landmark in Hüls.

The old water tower is very well maintained. Unfortunately, you can only look at it from the street.
