    The tower was part of the first Rheinbach water and electricity works, which was in operation from 1897 to 1949. The building has been a listed building since December 18, 1984 and is now used as an artist's studio. Source: Wikipedia

      Until 1969, the water tower was still used by the Rheinbach fire brigade as a hose maintenance facility. (Info: Chronicle of the Rheinbach fire brigade)
