Here, in Friedrichsruh , there was a train station as early as 1850 . In 1884 a stop "Aumühle" was set up, in 1909 construction of the station began.

With the establishment of the villa village Sachsenwald-Hofriede in 1891, Aumühle developed into an upscale residential area. The owner of this residential area suggested the construction of a viewing and water tower while Bismarck was still alive, which was inaugurated as the Bismarck Tower in 1901 .
