Watertoren Domburg, Water tower and national monument in Domburg, Netherlands.

The brick tower rises 28.5 meters above the dunes within De Manteling nature reserve, featuring a copper-covered upper section that has turned green through oxidation.

Built in 1933 by architect Hendrik Sangster, the structure stored 200 cubic meters of water from the Oranjezon extraction area to maintain pressure in local pipes.

The tower received Rijksmonument status in 1997, marking its recognition as a significant piece of Dutch industrial and architectural heritage.

The structure functions as private residences with multiple floors, including apartments that extend from the ground level kitchen to a panoramic upper room.

Visible bullet holes from World War II damage remain in the tower's exterior, preserved as historical markers during subsequent renovations.
