A water tower in Cuxhaven: This is the dream property for Mirabelle and Alain Caboussat. They buy the listed tower and move from the Emmental to the North Sea. The renovation, however, is dragging on forever. It costs millions and is nerve-wracking. Now the opening is finally approaching. _____________________________________________ ????

They immediately fell in love with the old water tower. They gave up their quiet life in Switzerland, settled in Cuxhaven with their two sons and planned a radical renovation: a café in the former water tank 40 meters high, with a bed and breakfast and shops underneath. Although the Caboussats had prepared themselves well, everything turned out differently. The pandemic and fire and monument protection requirements made life difficult for them. Everything was delayed. They were losing money day after day. A resizing of the project was unavoidable. Mirabelle and Alain had barely solved one problem when new ones emerged. Progress was infinitely slow. There are no standard solutions for the 48-meter-high tower. Every detail had to be rethought - a herculean task. The tower could not finally be opened until the beginning of December 2023. The Caboussats had made their dream come true. _____________________________________________ ▪ A film by Barbara Frauchiger ▪ Camera: Markus Friebe, Jonas Weinhold ▪ Editing: Andreas Arnheiter ▪ Production: Andrea Hinder ▪ Director: Nathalie Rufer _____________________________________________ This is «DOK»: Our in-depth documentaries on topics from society, nature, politics, sport and business.
