Hiking

In the middle of the nature park, a 50 meter high water tower stretches between the trees into the sky, which used to provide water for the steam locomotive engines. The steel structure is the landmark of the site and represents the contrast between nature and technology.

Hiking

The 50-meter-high steel water tower was built in 1927 during the expansion of the existing railway facilities to create an efficient marshalling yard. A container with a pentagonal base and a hemispherical dome roof sits on top of the rust-red tower frame.
