מגדל המים מגדל מים זה שימש תחנת איתות אל יישובי הדרום. מכאן ביצע "שרות הקשר" של "ההגנה" התקשרויות במכשירי "הליוגרף" ו"מורס" עם נקודות יישוב רחוקות כמו באר-טוביה בדרום ובן-שמן במזרח.

Translation of the text on the sign: The emblem of the city of Holon Symbol of the Haganah members’ organization - Holon branch
The Water Tower This water tower served as a signaling station to the southern settlements. From here, the Haganah’s "communications service" made connections with "heliograph" and "Morse" devices with remote settlements such as Beer Tuvia in the south and Ben-Shemen in the east.
