What to expect

Discover the history and stories behind Yekaterinburg's White Tower on this half-day private guided tour at your own pace.

Starting from meeting your guide at your accommodation in Yekaterinburg, you'll travel back in time to the late 1920s in the North of Sverdlovsk. Hear how the construction of the Ural heavy machinery plant and its residential area led to the need to build a water tower for constant water supply.

Next, learn how in 1928, the architectural Director of Mashinstroy I. Lobachevsky proposed to build a water tower on an individual project and then won the "reisher sketch". Lastly, it's time to see with your own eyes the differences between the plans and the present reality of the avant-garde architectural tower.
