Szczecin water pumps

[4][3][2] Originally, the pumps were painted in blue with colorful details depicting the city coat of arms.

[3] In the first years after the war, the pumps were very useful for the city inhabitants as the water supply network remained not fully functional at the time.

[4] Polcast foundry, in cooperation with West Pomeranian University of Technology, was tasked by the Szczecin Department of Water Supply and Sewage to prepare the copies of missing decorative elements.

Such copies were made using both traditional methods used in the original manufacturing and modern technologies, such as computer modeling.

They are painted in a blue colour with a yellow crown placed at the top and a city coat of arms at the bottom.
