Acueducto de Tempul, Aqueduct in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain
The Tempul Aqueduct extends across 46 kilometers, incorporating tunnels, bridges, and water management structures to transport water from the Tempul spring to Jerez.
Engineer Angel Mayo de la Fuente designed this water infrastructure in 1864, completing the construction in 1868 to address the growing water needs of Jerez.
The structure represents an engineering milestone that transformed Jerez's development, following the path of an ancient Roman aqueduct built by Lucius Cornelius Balbus.
The aqueduct system includes multiple springs, reservoirs, inspection houses, and siphon bridges that ensure continuous water supply to the surrounding communities.
Eduardo Torroja Miret later added one of Spain's first prestressed concrete structures to the aqueduct when rebuilding the crossing over the Guadalete River.
