Description
A training area was first established by Bavarian Prince Luitpold in 1907. Construction of the 137 foot tall half-timbered-style Water Tower began in 1909. F There are 2 water tanks with a total capacity of 55,723 gallons of water. From 1910 – 1999 it served as the primary means of delivering drinking water from local wells on post to the kaserne and the field camps. From June 1999 to present day the town of Grafenwoehr supplies water to the main post. The water tower continue to supply water to the field camps as the Grafenwoehr city water systems does not have the pressure needed to push the water that far.
