Water tower Finow

The tower reaches 50 meters high with an 11-meter square base, constructed primarily from yellow bricks with Gothic design elements throughout the structure.

Built between 1917 and 1918 by architect Paul Mebes, the tower supplied water to the local brass manufacturing facilities until its decommissioning in 1964.

The building exemplifies early German brick expressionism architecture, marking a pivotal period in industrial construction during the early twentieth century.

Visitors can access the second floor museum by elevator and reach the 44-meter viewing platform for extensive views across the Finow Valley.

From the observation deck, people can see the Berlin television tower 50 kilometers away during favorable weather conditions.
