Stocksunds vattentorn, Water tower in Danderyd Municipality, Sweden.

The Stocksunds water tower stands 30 meters tall on a 45-meter hill between Bergstigen and Donnerstigen streets, featuring a round structure with light yellow exterior walls.

Built in 1910 with reinforced concrete, the water tower served local residents until 1960 when the municipality switched to the Görvälns water supply system at Lake Mälaren.

The architectural drawings of the tower received recognition at the 1911 International Hygiene Exhibition in Dresden for its innovative design and construction methods.

The tower structure contains residential spaces across multiple floors, with the original 275-cubic-meter water tank located at the top section of the building.

During its early years, visitors could access the observation terrace at the copper-clad top of the tower for a fee of 10 öre.
