Zijlpoort Description
North of Leyden's Museum of Geology and Mineralogy the Kerkbrug, a 19th century cast-iron bascule bridge, crosses the Oude Rijn. Just beyond this is Haarlemmerstraat, which runs east and leads alongside the picturesque harbor to the second of the two surviving town gates, the Zijlpoort (1667). The other gates were pulled down in the 19th century.
