Warandetoren, Observation tower in Middelkerke, Belgium.
The steel structure rises 20 meters high with curved blades that mirror the appearance of helmet grass along the coastal landscape.
Initially constructed as a water tower in the early 20th century, the structure was transformed into an observation point through a renovation project in 2018.
The tower stands within Warandeduinen nature area, offering panoramic views of regional art installations and traditional Belgian coastal architecture.
Visitors can access the tower from Louis Logierlaan 51, climbing to multiple viewing levels that reveal views of Middelkerke, Westende, and the North Sea.
The structure combines its original water supply function with a modern steel and glass observation dome, serving both utility and tourism purposes.
