  The Odin satellite has been used to detect emission and absorption in the
557-GHz H2O line in the Galactic Centre towards the Sgr A* Circumnuclear Disk
(CND), and the Sgr A +20 km/s and +50 km/s molecular clouds. Strong broad H2O
emission lines have been detected in all three objects. Narrow H2O absorption
lines are present at all three positions and originate along the lines of sight
in the 3-kpc Spiral Arm, the -30 km/s Spiral Arm and the Local Sgr Spiral Arm.
Broad H2O absorption lines near -130 km/s are also observed, originating in the
Expanding Molecular Ring. A new molecular feature (the ``High Positive Velocity
Gas'' - HPVG) has been identified in the positive velocity range of ~ +120 to
+220 km/s, seen definitely in absorption against the stronger dust continuum
emission from the +20 km/s and +50 km/s clouds and possibly in emission towards
the position of Sgr A* CND. The 548-GHz H2_18O isotope line towards the CND is
not detected at the 0.02 K (rms) level.
