The Bad Soden Water Tower is now a listed building at the outskirts of Niederhofheimer Straße. The tower was built in 1911 for the Sinai gardening. It was completely renovated in 2000 and is now used as a lookout tower and exhibition space for natural history topics.

The former water tower, located on Niederhofheimer Strasse, was built in 1911 by Arthur Moll to supply his nursery and was used exclusively to irrigate his private carnation farm. In 1924, the Sinai nursery took over the business, which then became the property of Hoechst AG in 1987. The water tower has been a listed building since 1988. In 1993, it was purchased by the town of Bad Soden am Taunus and leased to NABU Bad Soden am Taunus (Nature Conservation Union Germany, Bad Soden Group) in 1995. NABU restored the tower in 1996/97 and has used it since then as a home for bats, barn owls, kestrels, swifts and other bird species. Inside the 21-meter-high tower, 186 meters above sea level, a narrow spiral staircase with 64 steps leads to the tower room. The tower room with its open beams serves the NABU as an exhibition space for natural history topics.

Very nicely renovated, here on the field you have a magnificent view of the skyline.
