The water tower in Godków is an interesting example of former railway infrastructure, built of red brick in an industrial style. Although it no longer serves its original function, it is a characteristic landmark in the landscape of this part of Western Pomerania. The facility is located near the former railway line and can be seen from the popular bike trail leading through Godków. It is a good place for a short stop and a photo in an industrial atmosphere. Access via local roads is not difficult for trekking or gravel bikes.

Railway water tower built in 1913.
Water was drawn from a drilled well located next to the tower. The tower tank was used until around 1980 (the pipeline was damaged during the introduction of electric traction at the station).
The tower has a brick core based on a regular octagon. A metal, riveted, Intze type tank with a capacity of 50 m3. The tank's protective wall is made of a wooden frame structure, filled with brick and plastered. The octagonal roof is covered with tiles, with a decorative metal spike visible at the top.
