Omohundro Water Treatment Plant, Water treatment facility in Nashville, United States.

The Omohundro Water Treatment Plant processes and purifies water from the Cumberland River through a complex system of pumps, filters, and treatment units.

Built in 1888 with Holly-Gaskill pumps, this Gothic Revival structure initially transferred 10 million gallons of water daily from Cumberland River to the City Reservoir.

The facility represents a milestone in public health infrastructure, demonstrating the evolution of municipal water treatment systems in Tennessee's growing urban centers.

Tours of the plant provide visitors with information about water purification processes, system operations, and the importance of water treatment in modern cities.

The original steam-powered generators remained operational until 1952, when the facility modernized its systems by converting to electrical power generation methods.
