This is the Water Gauge building. A measuring point for the Vistula river level (one of the first) was established in 1809, the visible building was constructed in the 1890s. On the turret on the Vistula side, it had a clock-type indicator, which was visible from the river and provided important information for helmsmen. Furthermore, long-term measurements allowed for predicting changes in the river's condition and facilitated planning.

The granaries in Grudziądz are a unique complex of medieval grain warehouses built on the Vistula escarpment. Their massive walls served both a defensive function and protected against landslides. The characteristic silhouette of the granaries, visible from the Vistula, has become a symbol of the city. Today, some of the buildings have been adapted for museum and residential purposes. The panorama of the granaries from the river is one of the most recognizable views on the entire Vistula Bike Trail.
