Landskrona Water Tower

The Landskrona Water Tower is a modern cylindrical structure standing 65 meters tall near the Øresund Strait. It was built to store and supply water to the local area and has a steel-reinforced concrete construction.

The tower was built in 1970 to replace an earlier water supply system. Public access was closed in the early 2000s due to safety concerns about concrete deterioration.

The tower became part of Landskrona's skyline and reflects how Sweden designed public infrastructure in the late 1900s. Its form is instantly recognizable to people who live or work nearby.

The tower is visible from the outside but closed to public entry. You can view it from the surrounding areas or see its outline from various points across the city.

The structure is visible from Denmark across the Øresund Strait and serves as a navigation reference for ships in the region. Steel netting was added in 2016 to catch falling concrete fragments.
