Wasserwerk Tolkewitz, Waterworks and cultural heritage monument in Dresden, Germany
The Wasserwerk Tolkewitz facility maintains advanced water treatment systems that process 35,000 cubic meters of drinking water per day for Dresden residents.
The waterworks began operations on January 17, 1896, when Dresden required additional water infrastructure to support its expanding population in the late 19th century.
The industrial architecture of Wasserwerk Tolkewitz represents the technical achievements of German engineering during the period of rapid urban development.
Visitors can reach the waterworks via Bus 87 or Trams 4, 6, 10, and 12, with the facility located at Wehlener Straße 37 in Dresden.
The facility survived the 2002 floods and underwent modernization in 2009, implementing automated control systems that reduced the required operational staff.
