    Шикарное здание одиноко и гордо расположилось среди жилых домов. Его архитектура, цветовая гамма и размеры могут среди других являться ориентиром в городе.

    (Translated by Google) The beautiful water tower in the Neo-Renaissance style was built by the then independent town of Královské Vinohrady in 1882 according to the project of the architect Antonín Turk. The tower was part of the Vinohrady water supply system, which consisted of an old waterworks in Podolí, underground reservoirs, a pumping station and a tower reservoir on Korunní třída. The Vinohrady water tower on a square floor plan, 40 meters high, has seven floors. The latter is covered by a terrace, which previously served as a sought-after lookout tower. In 1962, the gas station was decommissioned and the tower was rebuilt into apartments. In 1991, the building was declared a cultural monument. Two years later, the reconstruction took place and the sculptural decoration on the tower was restored. At the top of the tower are the corner pylons and the emblem of Královské Vinohrady. Between the windows of the top floor is a tower clock with Roman numerals on all four sides. They are operated by an electrically controlled Hainz mechanism, renovated during a complete renovation of the façade in 1993.

(Original) Nádhernou vodárenskou věž v novorenesančním slohu nechalo postavit tehdy samostatné město Královské Vinohrady v roce 1882 podle projektu architekta Antonína Turka. Věž byla součástí systému vodního zásobování Vinohrad, který se skládal ze staré vodárny v Podolí, podzemních vodojemů, čerpací stanice a věžového vodojemu na Korunní třídě. Vinohradská vodárenská věž na čtvercovém půdorysu, o výšce 40 metrů, má sedm podlaží. To poslední je překryto terasou, která dříve sloužila jako vyhledávaná rozhledna. V roce 1962 byla vyřazena z provozu čerpací stanice a věž byla přestavěna na byty. V roce 1991 byla stavba prohlášena za kulturní památku. O dva roky později proběhla rekonstrukce a byla obnovena sochařská výzdoba na věži. Na vrcholu věže jsou nárožní pylony a znak Královských Vinohrad. Mezi okny posledního patra jsou na všech čtyřech stranách věžní hodiny s římskými číslicemi. Obsluhuje je elektricky řízený Hainzův mechanismus, renovovaný při celkové obnově fasády v roce 1993.

    Wieża ciśnień Vinohrady jest jednym z charakterystycznych elementów panoramy Pragi. Renesansowy budynek wieżowy w kształcie graniastosłupa z końca XIX wieku ma czterdzieści metrów wysokości. W różnych okresach woda była rozprowadzana z tego miejsca aż do Žižkov, Strašnice, Vršovice, części Nusle i dzielnicy Pankrác. Wieża służyła swojemu pierwotnemu celowi do 1962 roku i jest obecnie zabytkiem kultury.

There is a volleyball and a basketball court, a large jumping inflatable trampoline, where children alternate according to age, so that no injury occurs. In the next part of the course is a large crawling castle, swings and other attractions and facilities with toilets and drinking water.

Je zde volejbalové i basketbalové hřiště, veliká skákání nafukovací trampolína, na které se děti střídají podle věku, ať nedojde k úrazu.
