Wasserturm Heide

The red brick tower with granite base and copper-clad tank features a conical shaft crowned by a cone roof with lantern, reaching 48.7 meters.

Following a typhus epidemic in 1901, the water tower was constructed in 1903 to provide clean water through a 3270-meter pipeline to Heide's residents.

The tower, designed by architect Wilhelm Voigt from Kiel, combines Romanesque elements with industrial architecture through its brick arches and technical functionality.

Since 2003, the renovated structure offers 180 square meters of office space and a 71-square-meter room at the top for civil ceremonies.

The tower's tank contained an Intze-1 container with 225 cubic meters capacity, supported by a waterproof reinforced concrete construction with copper cladding.
