Lüneburg Water Tower, Water tower in southeastern old town of Lüneburg, Germany.

Lüneburg Water Tower is a brick structure standing 55 meters tall with a square base measuring 18 meters on each side. The interior contained a water tank with a capacity of 500 cubic meters that supplied drinking water to the city.

The city council resolved on 10 November 1904 to build the tower; work began in 1905 and it was taken into use on 12 November 1907. City building master Richard Kampf sketched it, architect Franz Krüger drew the details and led construction, modelling the facade on the 15th-century Uenglinger Tor of Stendal. Its 500 m³ tank proved too small by 1913, and the tower was raised at least once before being decommissioned in summer 1986.

The tower now serves as a venue for concerts, exhibitions, and weddings, with the space drawing hundreds of couples each year to celebrate their marriages. This second life shows how the community has transformed an industrial structure into a cultural gathering place.

An elevator carries visitors to level 6; from there a spiral staircase of 20 more steps leads to the viewing terrace. The tower stands on the schoolyard of the Oberschule Stadtmitte, and the neighbouring Parkhaus Stadtmitte has a facade adapted to the tower's appearance.

The tower's water tank held 500 cubic metres, but by 1913 that supply lasted only a single morning, so the structure had to be raised at least once. The viewing platform was planned from the start: the square base is topped by a high crenellated parapet. Students of the neighbouring Oberschule Stadtmitte run about 250 guided tours a year.
