Viljandi vana veetorn

Viljandi vana veetorn valmis 1911. aastal. Tänaseni on ta säilinud punastest tellistest, väikeste akende ning puust ülaosaga tornina. Torn oli kasutuses veetornina umbes 50 aastat, tegevus lõpetati 1960. aastal.. Vahepeal oli see üsna halvas seisus ning 2001. aastal renoveeriti vana veetorn ning sellest sai vaatetorn ning turistide üks põhilisemaid objekte.

Viljandi Old Water Tower was built in 1911. It was preserved until today with its red bricks, small windows and the octangular wooden upper part. Tower was used as a water tower for almost 50 years, the main activity stopped in 1960. In the meantime it almost collapsed but the tower was renovated in 2001 and it became as an observation tower until today. It is one of the main tourist attraction in Viljandi.
