The Radbrunnenturm houses a well that reaches 41 m deep into the rock. It was operated with a treadwheel, which is where the Radbrunnenturm gets its name from. Today, an art center is located within the walls of the Radbrunnenturm.

The tower is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the city. Its rear is adorned with the modern artwork "Radbühne," a work by Breisach artist Helmut Lutz from 2013. The tower itself houses a 41-meter-deep drinking water well and regularly provides space for exhibitions of all kinds for the Breisach Art Circle.
