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.

Hiking

on the southern outskirts of Stammheim is the water tower, built in 1881, original height 40 m, two superimposed structures (including a dome and a circular walkway) no longer exist. Four coal-fired steam engines in an adjacent building pumped groundwater from well shafts, either directly into the pipe system or inside the water tower.
The water tower is to be renovated and new living space created in it (???)

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.
