Haarlem - Town Hall Tower

The tower, Haarlem's great landmark and emblem, was built in 1460, but was pulled down in the 18th century when in danger of collapse. In 1913 it was re-erected on the basis of old drawings. The old bell was installed in the new tower, and still rings at the beginning of every town council meeting. The Pandpoort (1490) was the entrance to the monastery.
