The tower served as the depot's water supply, primarily for the locomotives' feedwater.
Since the post-war years, the rooms in the annexes have been used as a railway training and apprenticeship workshop for metalworkers and high-voltage electricians. The water tower's reservoir was in use until the 1970s.
In 1989, the building was listed as a historical monument.
