Watertoren De Tien Gemeenten, Water tower in Zoetermeer, Netherlands
The 45-meter-tall brick tower features concrete bands, facade lists, and municipal coats of arms surrounding the entrance door.
Built between 1927 and 1928, the tower served thirteen municipalities by storing 500,000 liters of water for distribution until the 1990s.
The structure stands as a symbol of industrial progress, marking the transition from contaminated surface water to modern drinking water distribution.
Visitors can access the interior iron staircase leading to an observation platform during the annual Open Monument Day in September.
The tower rests on 324 wooden piles extending 14 meters into the ground, supporting its massive concrete water reservoir.
