Fulerum Water Tower, Water tower in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany
The Fulerum Water Tower rises 40 meters above ground with three cylindrical tanks mounted on a reinforced concrete structure with three supporting legs.
Built in 1974, this water tower replaced an older structure from 1907 that could no longer meet the water supply demands of the growing population.
The tower design reflects the architectural trends of the 1960s and 1970s in the Ruhr area, influenced by space programs and Brutalist aesthetics.
The facility maintains three water tanks of 500 cubic meters each, supplying drinking water to the districts of Heißen, Heimaterde, and Holthausen.
Located at an elevation of 118 meters above normal level, the tanks feature green-painted aluminum profile panels that distinguish them in the cityscape.
