Tinghøj Vandreservoir, Water reservoir in Gladsaxe Municipality, Denmark
The Tinghøj Vandreservoir contains ten large underground water tanks and twenty access towers distributed across two elevated green plateaus covering ten hectares.
Built between 1931 and 1935, this reservoir marked a significant advancement in Danish infrastructure as the first major concrete water facility in Copenhagen.
The access towers display circular windows arranged to represent star constellations, combining industrial functionality with architectural elements designed by Ib Lunding.
The facility maintains water supply for Copenhagen through a system of 264 concrete pillars supporting each reservoir, capable of storing 20,000 cubic meters of water.
The structure features parabolic domes made from concrete, steel, and copper, with distinctive transverse seams that reveal the original casting process.
