The oldest still-standing water tower of the Netherlands. The tower, completed in 1873, counts seven water reservoirs with a total capacity of 1000 m3. At the foot of the water tower remain the offices and houses of the staff that once manned this tower. It lost its function as a water tower in 1978, being modified in 1986 to house office space. It also contains a space for cafés and restaurants.
