Munttoren
When the French occupied Amsterdam, this medieval tower briefly became the city's official mint, literally where money was made.
Stand before this graceful tower that serves as one of Amsterdam's most beloved landmarks, where medieval history meets baroque elegance. You'll admire Hendrick de Keyser's architectural masterpiece, crowned with a distinctive spire that chimes every quarter hour. The tower once housed the city's mint during the 17th century, giving it its name and historical significance. Located at the busy intersection of canals and shopping streets, it provides a perfect anchor point for exploring the city center while offering a glimpse into Amsterdam's Golden Age prosperity.
