Watertoren

The water tower measures 55 meters in height and contains five concrete reservoirs with a total capacity of 2265 cubic meters of water.

Built in 1949 following designs by architect A.J. van Eck, this structure replaced the original tower that was destroyed during wartime actions in 1944.

In 1995, artist Johnny Beerens created large water droplet paintings on the exterior walls, with one droplet containing a self-portrait of the artist.

The tower offers guided tours for 10 euros per adult and 5 euros for children, including access to panoramic views from the 45-meter-high observation level.

The internal staircase winds between the outer shell and the water tanks, creating an architectural arrangement different from conventional tower designs.
