Châteaux d'eau du bois de la Cambre, Water towers in Bois de la Cambre, Brussels, Belgium.
Two water towers stand at Belle Alliance Avenue, with the first structure measuring 15 meters and the second reaching 30 meters in height.
The first water tower, constructed between 1879 and 1880, represents one of the earliest hydraulic structures built in Belgium.
Both structures received heritage protection status in 1976, marking their significance in Brussels' industrial development.
The first water tower has been converted into office spaces, while the second structure, built in 1890, remains unused.
The original water tanks held capacities of 600 and 800 cubic meters, designed to distribute water to southern Brussels neighborhoods.
