Wasserturm Klotzsche

The 28-meter high concrete tower features a square base of 14.36 meters and includes several floors with large windows overlooking the surrounding area.

Built in 1935 to supply water to Dresden Airport, the tower maintained its primary function until the 1960s when it also served as a fire watch station.

The tower's architecture reflects the construction style of the 1930s, with its robust concrete structure and characteristic brick exterior walls.

In 2004, the structure was transformed into residential spaces, creating 12 apartments across 8.5 floors with a total area of 1,350 square meters.

The building contains an original relief by artist Rudolf Wittig, which was moved from the tower shaft to the property entrance during renovation.
