Мытищинский-Московский водопровод, Water pipeline in Mytishchi, Russia
The Mytishchi-Moscow water pipeline stretches across 270 kilometers, connecting multiple pumping stations and aqueducts between Mytishchi and central Moscow.
In 1779, Catherine II commissioned military engineer Friedrich Wilhelm von Bauer to construct the first Moscow water supply system using Mytishchi water sources.
The water pipeline infrastructure includes water collection fountains decorated by Russian sculptors, which became central meeting points for Moscow residents.
The pipeline currently supplies water to 180,000 residents and 1,300 organizations in the Mytishchi district, maintaining its essential function.
The Rostokinskiy Aqueduct, part of the original pipeline system, stands as the oldest bridge structure in Moscow.
