Alcubilla de Aguas de la Trinidad stands in Málaga’s historic La Trinidad neighbourhood as a seventeenth-century water reservoir. Its square structure rises in two sections, with semicircular openings above narrow vertical slits.

Built in 1690, the reservoir stored water and created pressure for a siphon crossing the Guadalmedina River. The flow reached an arca in Plaza de Montaño before entering Málaga’s city centre. The Almendral del Rey aqueduct supplied this system, known as Aguas de la Trinidad, until the early twentieth century. A twin reservoir once stood across the river, but that counterpart has disappeared.

Rehabilitation in 2017 uncovered a buried third section below ground level and exposed an earlier ashlar-effect wall. The west façade still shows part of that earlier surface. A reddish nineteenth-century coating covers the pilasters, while two-coloured tiles and a metal weather vane finish the roof.
