Eindhoven Waterbollen

What the sources establish

• The Cultural Heritage Agency’s dossier dates the Waterbollen to 1970 and identifies Wim Quist as architect.
• The complex consists of three spherical reservoirs, each approximately ten metres in diameter and with a stated capacity of 500 cubic metres.
• The spheres stand at differing heights of roughly thirty to forty-five metres.
• The dossier describes the complex as still operating and identifies it as a protected national monument.

Evidence limits

No current water levels, flow, pressure, maintenance condition or live operational capacity are inferred. The original silhouette explains the three-reservoir form without claiming to be a measured elevation or documentary photograph.
