Alter Wasserturm, Köln-Stammheim, Water tower in Stammheim, Germany

The water tower stands at the southern edge of Stammheim, with its remaining 28-meter base structure constructed from solid materials and architectural elements.

Built in 1881, the tower initially reached 40 meters in height and contained water tanks that supplied drinking water to Cologne-Mülheim and surrounding districts.

The Rheinische Wasserwerks Gesellschaft inscription remains visible above the sealed entrance, marking the tower's industrial heritage and former ownership.

After four years of development, the 2020 renovation project converts the tower into seven loft apartments with an external staircase and elevator addition.

The structure integrates photovoltaic installations and modern home technology systems while maintaining its status as a technical monument since July 1980.
