An interesting small museum, in a single room. It's a special room though, as the exhibit, dedicated to the city water system, is hosted in a former water lifting station. It opened in 2009 and it's located in the historical center.

In the exhibit the visitor will find a set of explanatory boards as well as most of the original equipment of the station. There is no staff in the premises.
