At the beginning of the 20th century, a water tower was built here, a rock formation made of natural stone with a grotto, two ponds at different heights and a round pavilion designed by the city architect Schülke.

The square created to commemorate the master builder Hermann Schülke, who worked in Duisburg from 1874 to 1881, is located on the Kaiserberg [...] and is part of the pond and grotto complex there. [...]

Hermann Schülke was born on March 26, 1873 in the rural community of Kähme/ Birnbaum [...] district. After working for the city of Essen and the public limited company Rheinische-Westfälische Industrie in Essen, among others, he was called to Duisburg and in the following years made a name for himself with the construction of a waterworks (the first part of which was the water tower on the Kaiserberg), the emergence various school buildings, the expansion of the Kaiserberg, then still called Duissenberg, into a place for excursions and recreation, and the erection of the war memorial on the beech tree and the Mercator memorial on the Burgplatz.
