Wasserturm Hochfeld, Industrial water tower in Hochfeld district, Duisburg, Germany.
The tower rises 47 meters high and features a steel-concrete design with six internal and six external support pillars connected by brick masonry.
Built in 1917, this water tower supplied steam locomotives at Hochfeld freight station until the introduction of electric locomotives in the 1960s.
The structure now functions as a center for dining and events, with a restaurant and panoramic cafe occupying its upper sections after renovations.
Located at coordinates 51.4123°N and 6.76367°E, the tower includes modern office spaces and event halls following a 5-million-euro renovation completed in 2007.
