About

The Mãe d'Água das Amoreiras (Portuguese for "Mother of Water of Amoreiras"), formally known as the Reservatório da Mãe d'Água das Amoreiras, is a historic reservoir in Lisbon, Portugal. Constructed as the terminal reservoir of the Águas Livres Aqueduct, it was designed in 1745 and completed in 1834 in the Jardim das Amoreiras district.

Today, the reservoir forms one of the four sites of the Museu da Água, operated by EPAL.
