Watertoren Noorderbinnensingel, Water tower near Noorderbinnensingel, Netherlands.

The 45-meter tall brick tower features a black steel water reservoir with a capacity of 1000 cubic meters and a twelve-sided zinc tent roof.

Built in 1908 for the Academic Hospital in Groningen, this structure stands as the first water tower in the Netherlands constructed with a steel underframe.

The structure transformed from a vacant building into the Bovenkamer van Groningen, a center for business meetings and cultural gatherings since 2013.

Located within the care home complex De Ebbingepoort, the tower combines historical architecture with modern event facilities for various functions.

The water tower incorporates a Barkhausen reservoir design, making it one of only three such structures ever built in the Netherlands.
