About Dell Rapids Water Tower

Towers, Architecture, Interesting Places, Water Towers

The Dell Rapids Water Tower is a stone water tower located at 10th and Orleans Streets in Dell Rapids, South Dakota. The tower was built in 1894 to provide Dell Rapids with a civic water supply. The city decided to build the tower after an 1888 fire burned the south side of Main Street. The 45-foot (14 m) water tower is built with Sioux quartzite, a type of red-pink rock found in southern South Dakota, southwest Minnesota, and northwest Iowa. The tower provided water to Dell Rapids until 1960, when the city constructed a new tower. It is the only stone water tower remaining in South Dakota.

The tower was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 23, 1984.
