Historic Water Tower Retreat-By Traum

Holiday home located approximately 200 meters to the forest by Stødby Strand by a small lake, which is not fenced. There are activity rooms with various exercise equipment including rowing machine. There is free internet and TV with international channels. Outdoors you will find barbecues and good garden furniture. The cottage is a beautiful, square yellowstone building on two floors with an unusually high roof construction. And it is actually up under the rafters that the background for the particular building is located, to this day. Here is a 2000 l water tank in iron camouflaged in a box with room for a thick layer of straw insulation. The tank was connected to the farm's large well, and as the highest point on the property, the water was formerly led from the tank and around the farm's stables and dwellings. Built in 1915, the water tower was the entrance of modern times to a degree that can be difficult to understand today, where running water is a matter of course, in line with breathing. Back then, it was a minor revolution to be able to drain cold well water directly from taps, both in the barn and in the kitchens. Instead of the hard work of pumping water out of the well and into buckets dragging it to cattle and kitchen sinks. In addition to the water tank, it also housed the Tyendeboligen, as the architect in the terminology of the time described his work, space for the feed master and his family on the ground floor, while three rooms on the first floor were housing for the farm men. On the yellow brick of the water tower, a wealth of scratched first names and initials testify to the lively activity of the past on the farm, and that an outbuilding was reserved for Polish tools, almost tells its own story of beets and Polish labor on the farm, which was built back in 1886. In 2020, the house has undergone a thorough restoration, so that in future it will appear as a holiday home for tourists. Not for rent to youth groups.
