Brzeg water tower - a historic water tower in the town of Brzeg, Opole Voivodeship, Poland.[1]

When the oldest waterworks for the town of Brzeg (Brieg), built in the second half of the nineteenth-century was not sufficient for the town's populous, in 1864, the town authorities set out to build a new water tower which was completed in the latter part of the aforesaid year. Initially, water was taken from the Oder River, however, due to noted frequent epidemics, a waterworks was built in Gierszowice to supply the water tower.[2][3]
