Hyllie Water Tower

The Hyllie Water Tower is a 62-meter-high architectural landmark in Malmö's Hyllie district. It is characterized by a white, saucer-like shape. Visitors typically visited as a point of visual interest or for a brief walk in the small park located at its base.

Getting There

The tower is located in the southern part of the city. From Malmö city centre, it is most accessible via local train or bus. The journey typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the mode of transport.

Visit Duration

Since the attraction is primarily an external landmark and a public space, allow 30 to 60 minutes for a visit. This provides enough time to view the structure and rest in the surrounding greenery.

When to Visit

The site is open to the public throughout the year. Daytime is recommended for the best visibility of the architecture. It does not typically experience heavy crowds, making it a quiet stop during any season.
