The station is located on the eastern side of Gdanska Street, in the district of the Forest of Gdansk (Polish: Las Gdański).

At the end of the 19th century (1881),[2] Bromberg authorities commissioned the construction of a municipal water supply and sewage system in the city.

[3] First projects by engineer Theodor Wulf approved in 1890 comprised a complex of buildings that included in water supply systems.

The high cost of this investment, covered by government's credits, led to several years of delay.

The most interesting architecture is displayed in the former pumping station with stained glass windows decorated using plant and animal motifs.

The interior is adorned with coffered wooden ceiling, supported by a row of columns, extended by profile heads and stained with herons and swans motifs.

The majority of the technical equipment has been disassembled for the purposes of an exhibition in 2002, leaving only a small crane made in Mannheim in 1933.

In the vicinity is a one level administration building, with modest Neo-Gothic features, crowned with a circular tower in its north corner.
