Hiking

The Bruderholz water tower is a 36-meter-high water tower on the Bruderholz hill in Basel-Bruderholz. The tower was built in 1926 due to the increasing settlement of Bruderholz and serves to supply water to these houses, which are located higher than usual in Basel.

Cycling

The area around the water tower with its meadows full of flowers, especially in early summer, is one of the most beautiful green retreats in Basel.

The tower offers a unique panoramic view of Basel and the Basel area. The tower, built in 1926, still serves today as a water reservoir to maintain the pressure in the drinking water network of the Bruderholz district.
