Wohnwasserturm Wulsdorf, Water tower and apartment building in Wulsdorf, Bremerhaven, Germany
The 33-meter-tall reinforced concrete structure contains two water tanks with a total capacity of 1500 cubic meters and features triangular pilasters on its exterior.
Built in 1927 during the expansion of the fishing port, the tower was designed by city architect Wilhelm Eduard Kunz to address water supply needs and housing shortages.
The building represents North German brick expressionism architecture and the functional style of the New Building Movement from the 1920s regional construction period.
The structure includes 24 two and three-room apartments distributed across five residential floors, with flexible interior walls that allow for layout modifications.
This water tower stands as the first high-rise building along the Unterweser river and maintains protected cultural heritage status since 1978.
