Vaasan vesitorni, Water tower in Vaasa, Finland

The Vaasan vesitorni reaches a height of 49 meters and features a circular water tank with a storage capacity of 525 cubic meters.

The red brick water tower was completed in 1915 under the direction of architects Jussi Paatela and Toivo Paatela, incorporating Art Nouveau design elements.

The water tower represents the technological advancement of early 20th century Finland and serves as a visual reference point for the city of Vaasa.

Located at Raastuvankatu 32, the tower maintains its primary function of water storage while standing as a prominent architectural structure in the cityscape.

The structure combines angular concrete support columns with a rectangular grid covering the water tank, creating distinct patterns when illuminated at night.
