Munttoren (Munttoren (Amsterdam))

La Munttoren, également connue en français en tant que tour de la Monnaie, est une tour située dans la capitale néerlandaise Amsterdam, bordant la place de la Monnaie (Muntplein). Faisant autrefois partie de la Regulierspoort en tant que porte de ville, est l'une des trois principales portes que la ville possède au Moyen Âge. Construite entre 1480 et 1487, elle est composée alors de deux tours et d'un poste de garde, une tour unique subsistant de nos jours.

  • Mint Tower (Munttoren) is a historic structure in central Amsterdam, situated at Muntplein, where the Singel Canal pours into the Amstel River. This was originally a gate that formed part of the city. It was built in 1480. Unfortunately, the the gate was badly damaged by fire in 1618, leaving only the guard house and part of the original tower. Dutch architect, Hendrick de Keyser, rebuilt the tower in 1620,in Dutch Renaissance style, including a clock face and carillon of bells, which can still be heard to this day. Interestingly, the tower building was used as a mint in the late 17th century, giving it the name it is referred to today. Now, you'll find a Royal Delft earthenware shop occupying the bottom floor of the Munttoren. Fans of architecture and historic buildings will enjoy seeing Munttoren, which can be quickly and conveniently viewed while sightseeing in the Eastern Canal Ring area of the city.
