Louisville Water Tower & WaterWorks Museum

Plan your visit to Louisville Water Tower. There’s 165 years of history and innovation that goes into every glass of Louisville Pure Tap® and we’re thirsty to share it with you.

Located inside Louisville Water’s original pumping stations, the WaterWorks Museum houses archives of historic photographs, films, and memorabilia, some of which date back to 1860.

Plus, tour a giant steam engine and step inside the Louisville Water Tower, the nation’s oldest standing ornamental water tower.

Louisville Water Tower is open for public visits the second Sunday of each month from 12–5 p.m. Tours start at the top of the hour beginning 1 p.m. The last tour of the day departs at 4 p.m.
