The water tower in Poděbrady, located in the Poděbrady III district of the Czech Republic, exemplifies functionalist architecture and stands as a cultural monument of the nation. Known locally as the vodojem v sadech S. K. Neumanna (water tower in S. K. Neumann Gardens), the structure reflects the modernist principles that defined early-to-mid twentieth-century Czech industrial design, prioritizing utilitarian form and efficiency in its geometric composition.
