    The striking brick building with its steel water tank was built in 1906 (on the site of the former Grube Carl mine and briquette factory) as a drinking water reservoir and put into operation in 1909. Today it is privately owned and used as an exceptional living space.

      The city's old water reservoir... meanwhile converted to living space... There's also a top view of the Cologne Bay
