Story
The first plan to build a water tower in the city on the Elbe dates back to 1905. Further unsuccessful attempts followed in 1914 and 1921, so that the population continued to rely on public and private wells. In 1924, however, a hot summer caused a number of wells to dry out and examination of the remaining ones revealed that they were of inferior quality and did not meet hygienic requirements. The magistrate then made the decision on September 14, 1925 to create a central water supply, which the city council finally approved on September 26, 1926.[2]

A pump house, five deep wells, a transformer station and the pipes for drinking water distribution were built. The 58 meter high tower, which clearly towers above its surroundings, has several parallels to the tower in Bobbau. They are each square and their external shape is structured by pilaster strips and cornices. Both towers use reinforced concrete skeleton construction, in which only the spaces (compartments) were lined with bricks. Both towers also almost completely hide the elevated tank, which can hold 200 cubic meters of water. The container floor only protrudes minimally from the eleven by eleven meter floor plan.[4]
