My water tower not only provides me and my residents with - you wouldn't know it – water. It’s also the purest architectural feast for the eyes. It is not for nothing that it is considered the most beautiful Art Nouveau water tower in Germany. I love the sight of this gorgeous fellow peeping out from the surrounding apartment buildings. If that's not a flagship photo spot, I don't know what is. On some Saturdays you can even climb it. After a (I want to be honest) strenuous ascent, you will be rewarded so much. This all-round view over Mönchengladbach is simply wonderful. You can also learn a lot about my waterworks during a guided tour. It's exciting - come on, you can do the 234 steps! And then I'll take you on a leisurely stroll through my colourful garden. And the name says it all: the most beautiful flowers and shrubs from all over the world bloom here.
