A building somewhere in Russia. The entire description at the back is in Russian, so unfortunately I don't know what sort of building it is... Anyone who knows??

One of the main attractions of the city of Murom, Vladimir Region - a three-story brick water tower, combining the functions of a water pump and a sentinel fire tower, was built in 1863-1864. for city water supply. In the 19th century, the inhabitants of Murom recognized the weather forecast by the color of the flag hanging on the tower.

Одна из главных достопримечательностей города Мурома Владимирской области - кирпичная трёхэтажная водонапорная башня, совместившая в себе функции водокачки и дозорной пожарной вышки - построена в 1863—1864 гг. для городского водопровода. В XIX веке по цвету флага, вывешиваемого на башне, жители Мурома узнавали прогноз погоды.
