Watertoren Amsterdam Spaklerweg, Water tower and national monument in Overamstel, Netherlands.
The Watertoren Amsterdam Spaklerweg is a water tower and national monument in Overamstel with a distinctive brick construction and circular footprint that rises clearly above its surroundings. The structure features an iron reservoir at the top and contains an internal staircase for access.
The tower was built in 1911 as part of a larger industrial site and supplied water to the expanding city during early twentieth century growth. It represents the engineering solutions that supported Amsterdam's development at that time.
This brick structure showcases Dutch industrial design with its distinctive red exterior that stands out clearly in the Overamstel landscape. Residents and visitors recognize it as a notable reminder of the city's working past.
This structure is located in the Overamstel district and is accessible via public transportation, with several nearby stops making it easy to reach. Visitors can view and photograph it from outside, as the distinctive shape is visible from multiple angles around the building.
This structure houses one of the last cast-iron Intze 2 reservoirs remaining in the Netherlands, a rarity in modern urban settings. Inside, a carefully crafted wrought-iron spiral staircase leads visitors upward through the tower.
