Militærtanker - Bergues

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

Den hævede cisternen blev bygget i 1724.

Som en befæstet by måtte Bergues forudse muligheden for en belejring ... et centralt element under en sådan blokade er vand... og det er allestedsnærværende i byen. Den militære cisterne, der også stammer fra 1725, kunne rumme 700.000 liter vand! Vandet opbevares og filtreres ved sedimentering eller klarifikation. Anset for at være drikbart efter datidens sundhedsstandarder, forsynede det primært militæret og nogle gange befolkningen.

I 1820 blev reservoiret dækket med et tag over hiicen, hvorfra et kornlager blev bygget.

Taget brændte i 1940 under krigen og er ikke blevet restaureret siden.
