Water Tower, Bratislava, Gothic water tower in central Bratislava, Slovakia
The cylindrical water tower rises 50 meters high, supported by six reinforced concrete pillars with rectangular windows illuminating the internal structure.
Built between 1942 and 1946 under architect Emil Belluš, the tower served as part of the city's water management infrastructure during the Czechoslovak Republic period.
The water tower design combines utilitarian engineering with architectural elements, representing Slovak technical innovation through its modern structural approach.
The structure contains a circular observation hallway at the upper level, with service ladders providing maintenance access to the water reservoir section.
The tower design creates a visual contrast between the solid water tank chamber and the open supporting structure beneath, surrounded by an orchard setting.
