As a waterworks, the tower reservoir is inaccessible to the public. The construction of the reservoir began at the end of March 1987 with the excavation of a foundation pit. The foundation slab has a diameter of 10 m and a height of 2.5 m. The reinforced concrete shaft of the tower reservoir built by means of sliding formwork and longitudinally divided by 12 ribs was based on a solid, non-weathered bedrock with a foundation joint at a depth of 5 m. In the shaft with an inner diameter of 4.4 m is a staircase with 220 steps. Tanks with a circular floor plan of a steel structure optically divide the vertical narrow strips. The upper tank with an outer diameter of 27 m weighing 260 tons was extended by hydraulics on 24 rails in September 1988. The bottom of the upper tank is 31.1 m above the ground, the roof is 43.25 m high. The volume of the upper tank is 2000 m3. This was followed by the import of segments of the lower tank with an outer diameter of 41 m, their assembly and removal. The bottom of the lower reservoir is located at a height of 11.65 m above the ground, the roof is 23.25 m. The volume of the lower reservoir is 4000 m3. The height of the shaft is 50 m, the height of the whole building, even with the lightning conductor, is even 63.25 m. The upper and lower tanks are divided into two separate chambers with supply and consumption pipes. The overflow from the upper chamber opens into the lower chamber, from the lower chamber into the adjacent ground reservoir. There is a technology room in the lower chamber. The supply to the groundwater reservoir is led by a DN 700 feeder with branches to each tank of the tower reservoir. The filling of the tanks is gravitational or forced from the pumping station depending on the flow in the feeder and controlled from the pumping station. The tanks are provided on both sides with anti-corrosion coatings, the inner ones with Resistant with certification for contact with drinking water. The surface color of the tanks was determined by the architect of the then Regional Design Institute. They completed the construction in November 1989 and subsequently put it into operation. Due to the then price inflation, the total construction costs were exceeded by 21% to the final CZK 69.53 million, of which imports and the construction of the tower reservoir amounted to CZK 51.75 million. In addition to the reservoir, the acquired capacities represent a pumping station with a capacity of 117 l / s and a water supply line with a length of 1.32 km. Changes in surface lignite mining, industry, housing and drinking water consumption after 1990 gradually reduced the use of tower reservoir chambers. The Nová Ves housing estate was not completed in its entirety. Technological progress in radiotelephone communication gave the tower reservoir another mission and required construction modifications. In 2005, the tower reservoir was loaded with a steel lattice structure weighing 7.2 t for the installation of antenna systems of the access point of the public radiotelephone network. The 11.5 m high structure with four assembly platforms at a height of 50 to 59 m was supplemented by a 4 m high mast. The increase in the windward area at the top slightly increased the bending moment at the base of the tower, transmitted by the reinforced concrete structure to the rock foundation. At present, the reservoir is not operated by waterworks, it serves as a "cold reserve".

An interesting building, visible from a distance, there is a very wide road leading up, ending with a ban on entry, you have to walk up the hill under the reservoir.
