For a long time, the water tower served to maintain pressure in the Forster water network. It is owned by Stadtwerke Forst. With the construction of a new pressure vessel at the waterworks in Triebeler Str. In 2021, it will lose its technical function. But it remains a landmark in Forst.

The Forst (Lausitz) Water Tower is the landmark of the town of Forst (Lausitz). It was built between 1902 and 1903 as part of the construction of a central water supply for the town. The water tower is located south of the town center at the Triebeler Straße roundabout and is a listed building. In Forst, it is also known as "Our Fatty" (Unser Dicker).

I think it's THE landmark of Forst! Imposing and beautiful at any time of day, night, or year!
