Water tower on the southern outskirts of Stammheim, built in 1881, original height 40 m, two superimposed superstructures (including a dome and tour) are no longer available. Four coal-fired steam engines in a neighboring building pumped groundwater from well shafts, either directly into the pipe system or into the interior of the water tower.

The Stammheim water tower was built in 1881 and originally had a height of 40 m. All that remains of the old structure is the 28-metre-high base, on which the water tanks used to supply the area were located. Two structures lying one on top of the other, including a dome and a gallery, are no longer preserved.

At the end of 2020, after a four-year development period, the Cologne Project I construction project to restore and expand the old water tower started.
With direct access to the Rhine in Cologne-Stammheim, 7 lofts are to be built in the listed water tower as well as 15 modern townhouses and 7 barrier-free comfort residential units.
