Stadtgeschichtliches Zentrum Wittenberg, Wittenberg 1991, {{OCLC|258696929}}.</ref> In the 16th century, the steady growth of the population of the town of Wittenberg made a supply of fresh and clear water increasingly necessary. The existing wells and streams were no longer sufficient, as they were increasingly polluted with rubbish. The tubewater changed all that. With the tube water connection, fresh spring water was available to the citizens day and night, summer and winter. It was not until 1883 that the tubewater lost its importance due to the central water supply. Today, the Wittenberg tube water system with its 20 or so existing wells is the only functioning tube water supply system from the Middle Ages north of the [[Alps]] and thus a technical monument. Since 2002, parts of the streams flowing through the town have been opened up.<ref>[https://www.wittenberg.de/staticsite/staticsite.php?menuid=489&topmenu=6 ''Historic streams in the old town.''] In: ''wittenberg.de,'' retrieved 3 August 2016 (planning and construction history of the opening).</ref> * [[Ratsarchiv Wittenberg]], Juristentrasse 16. * [[Kirchliches Forschungsheim]], Friedrichstrasse 1a. * [[Luthergarten Wittenberg|Luthergarten]], park with 270 trees from all over the world near the castle on Kurfürstenring (formerly Hallesche Straße). * Panoramic circular image ''[[Luther 1517]]'' by [[Yadegar Asisi]], Wilhelm-Weber-Straße near the [[Augusteum and Luther House Wittenberg|Lutherhaus]]<ref>[https://www.wittenberg360.de/ ''Wittenberg 360°.''] In: ''wittenberg360.de,'' retrieved 25 May 2021.</ref> * Tierpark Wittenberg (Zoological Garden), Juristenstraße. * Alaris Butterfly Park, Rothemarkstraße. * K-Building (Kommandantengebäude), to house the planned study collection of the municipal collections, with attached lecture and conference centre, Juristenstrasse 14<ref>Irina Steinmann: [https://www.mz-web.de/wittenberg/museum-im-k-gebaeude--bloss-keine-reine-lagerhalle--29513846 ''Museum in the K-Building?
