Beautiful restored water tower.
The water tower in Mannheim-Seckenheim became the elevator museum
rebuilt and thus saved from demolition
There are still 20 water towers in Mannheim today. The oldest and most magnificent, has become the landmark of the city, since 1888 on Friedrichsplatz. The youngest, which was built on an octagonal floor plan from March to August 1911, is the one in Seckenheim. Inside this approximately 38 meter high tower was a cylindrical container made of reinforced concrete, which could absorb 350 cubic meters of water.

From the Seckenheimer also lovingly called Glatzkopp. Rebuilt by a private company a few years ago and converted into a lift museum.
