Guided Story

Look up! This tower standing before you is more than just a striking piece of architecture. It's a silent witness to Bremen's history. Imagine back in the 19th century when water was a precious resource, this tower was central to bringing it into the city. Close your eyes, and you might almost hear the water rushing through old pipes. To your left, a little further away, is the Olbers Planetarium. During the day, the tower is impressive, but at sunset, when the light hits those bricks just right, it’s almost magical. Enjoy the view and let the past wash over you.
