Shukhov Tower in Krasnodar, Steel hyperboloid water tower in Krasnodar, Russia.
The Shukhov Tower in Krasnodar rises 25 meters high and features a distinctive steel mesh structure forming a rotating hyperboloid shape.
Built in 1932 by engineer Vladimir Shukhov, the structure served as a water tower until 1957, when its operational functions ceased and its water bowl was removed in 1986.
The tower represents one of twelve remaining similar constructions in Russia and maintains federal cultural heritage status due to its engineering innovation.
Visitors can observe and photograph the tower from multiple angles along the surrounding streets, with the structure particularly visible during daytime hours.
The tower's design employs straight metal segments arranged in a mathematical pattern to create curved surfaces, reducing material usage while maintaining structural strength.
