Tilburg water tower, Water tower from 1897 in Tilburg, Netherlands.

The brick water tower reaches a height of 50.5 meters and contains a water reservoir with a capacity of 1000 cubic meters.

During World War II, German forces used the tower for strategic purposes and attempted to destroy it in 1944, causing substantial damage.

The tower represents the industrial development of Tilburg, marking the establishment of the first municipal water supply system in the city.

Located at Bredaseweg 207, the water tower stands as a national monument since 2002 and remains a reference point in the city landscape.

The entrance features neo-Renaissance decorative elements, designed by architect H.P.N. Halbertsma who created multiple water towers across the Netherlands.
