The brick water tower was built on the Marienberg at the beginning of the 20th century in order to maintain the water pressure in the higher-lying houses in Strausberg. It did its job reliably until the fall of the Wall, after which it was shut down. Today it can only be viewed on a few days of the year. From above you then have a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape.

The Marienberg is 93.5 m above sea level, the highest elevation of the urban district Strausberg. On this 1910 the water tower was built.

Hiking

The way to the tower is quite nice and you can walk a little bit uphill and downhill, which is rather rare in Brandenburg. The view is okay, but you won't tell your grandchildren about it 😉
