Watertoren, Wilhelminasingel, Breda, Water tower and office building in Breda, Netherlands.
The Wilhelminasingel water tower stands 42 meters tall with red-brown brick walls and features Renaissance Revival architectural elements throughout its structure.
Architect Jan Schotel designed this tower between 1893 and 1894 to provide water storage with a capacity of 500 cubic meters for the growing city.
The structure obtained Rijksmonument status in 1974, marking its transformation from a functional water tower into a protected national heritage site.
Following renovation in 1976, the former water tower now serves as office space for various companies under the management of Urban Interest BV.
Two relief sculptures by Gerard van Aalst decorate the entrance, with one depicting the angel from the coat of arms of Breda.
