Wasserturm Flensburg-Mürwik, Water tower in Volkspark, Flensburg, Germany.

The concrete and iron water tower rises 37.5 meters above Flensburg, featuring an observation deck at 26 meters that encircles a storage tank.

Architect Fritz Trautwein designed this water tower in 1961 to address the growing water supply needs of Flensburg's expanding eastern districts after World War II.

The Art Nouveau-influenced structure stands as a German cultural heritage monument, combining industrial functionality with architectural design elements of the period.

The tower maintains water pressure for the city network and stores 1.5 million liters of drinking water while offering public access from Wednesday through Sunday.

From the circular observation platform, visitors observe three church towers, shipyard cranes, the Danish coastline, and the rolling hills of Angeln region.
