    The water tower is the landmark of Oberplanitz and can be seen from afar.

    In 2013 the company celebrated its 100th anniversary. There was a renovation in 2001.

    It can be visited on the Open Monument Day in September. There is an exhibition inside and you can climb the 118 steps to the viewing platform.

    On Christmas Eve, a youth orchestra traditionally blows the tower at 1 p.m.

      The water tower was built in 1919 and is 33m high. At the beginning of the century it had to be dismantled and rebuilt true to the original. It offers a good view over Zwickau.
