Wasserturm

Wasserturm Neu-Ulm is a cylindrical brick structure with an octagonal water reservoir at the top and a copper dome at its peak. The building rises 47 meters high and stands out in the city with its distinctive form.

The tower was built in 1898 and replaced an older powder magazine structure from the former fortress. Its construction shows how Neu-Ulm developed from a military stronghold into a modern city.

The tower stands in a park and shows how important clean water became for the city's growth. Visitors today can see how proud people were of these modern structures in the late 1800s.

The tower is located on Turmstraße in Neu-Ulm and serves as an important landmark for orientation in the city. The surrounding park offers space to rest and provides good views of the entire structure.

The building unusually combines elements from Neo-Baroque and Art Nouveau styles in one structure. This is the last remaining example among six original powder magazines that once existed in the city.
