thumb|Svampen water tower Svampen () is a water tower in Örebro. It replaced the Norra Vattentornet and Södra vattentornet in 1958. It was created by architect Sune Lindström. It is 58 meters high.

The top is accessible by the public via an elevator, and hosts a small events and exhibition space with a cafe on the structure's terrace. To prevent suicide attempts in 2012 Örebro Municipality decided to build a net cage around the edges of the Svampen.
