Wasserturm Cuxhaven von 1897 - Germany - Water Towers on Waymarking.com

English

The water tower is built in 1897, it supplies Cuxhaven households with the necessary water pressure until 2004. During the 1960s taller builings were built, that had to be equipped with pressure boosting systems, since the gradient pressure of the water tower for the upper floors was not enough. 2004, the water tank was taken off the network. Since then, the water from the new water plant on the Cuxhaven Drangstweg with pumps is conveyed through the network. The water tower is now including the Office of Consumer Cuxhavener accommodated.

Der Wasserturm gilt als das heimliche Wahrzeichen der Stadt. 1897 gebaut, versorgte er bis zum Jahr 2004 die Cuxhavener Haushalte mit dem nötigen Wasserdruck. Im Laufe der 1960er Jahre wurden in Döse und Sahlenburg immer höhere Häuser gebaut, die mit Druckerhöhungsanlagen ausgestattet werden mussten, da der Gefälle-Druck des Wasserturms für die oberen Etagen nicht ausreichte. 2004 wurde der Wasserbehälter vom Netz genommen. Seitdem wird das Wasser aus dem Neubau des Cuxhavener Wasserwerks am Drangstweg mit Pumpen durch das Leitungsnetz befördert. Im Wasserturm ist jetzt u. a. das Büro der Cuxhavener Verbraucherzentrale untergebracht.
