Super-Cannes water tower, Water tower in Lotissement de Super-Cannes, France.
The water tower stands on the California massif summit, featuring Gothic-inspired elements combined with modern architectural details and crenellated parapets.
Built in 1926 by the Lyonnaise des Eaux company, the tower formed part of a grand development project that included plans for luxury amenities.
The structure's eclectic architectural design reflects the early 20th-century French Riviera development trends, incorporating medieval defensive elements into utilitarian infrastructure.
The tower continues to supply water to the Californie-Pezou neighborhood through a 24-kilometer distribution network established during its construction.
Originally intended to house a tea room and observation deck, the tower received an ocher-colored paint treatment to match surrounding buildings.
