Wasserturm Westend

The Wasserturm Westend stands at the intersection of Eschenallee and Rüsternallee, featuring distinctive architectural elements from the early 20th century design movement.

Construction of the water tower started in 1909 under architect Heinrich Seeling's direction, addressing Berlin's expanding water infrastructure needs during rapid urban growth.

The tower represents a period of industrial advancement in Berlin, when the city modernized its water supply system to meet the demands of its growing population.

Located at coordinates 52.51 latitude and 13.26 longitude, the tower maintains its status as an architectural monument and provides a reference point for local navigation.

The structure initially included plans for a restaurant beneath a 2,000-cubic-meter water tank, though this ambitious commercial venture never materialized.
