Kehrigk observation tower

The Kehrigk observation tower was built between 1909 and 1912 as a water tower and served to supply the town with drinking water. It was commissioned by the Jewish banker and Privy Councillor of Commerce, Hermann Frenkel. The extracted water was filtered and pumped into a high-level tank.
After several changes of ownership, the tower lost its original function. At the end of the 1990s, the staircase and the copper roof were renovated. Today, the restored tower is a landmark of the Storkow district of Kehrigk and a popular viewpoint offering panoramic views of forests, lakes, and the surrounding landscape.
