Things to do in Amersfoort, Utrecht Province: The Best Historic Sites

February 28, 2022 Jana Sager

Monolithic gates still protect Amersfoort, a well-preserved medieval city that remains connected to its history. Built into the foundations of 13th-century defensive walls, the Muurhuizen wall houses are one of the city’s most intriguing features. Art enthusiasts should visit the Mondriaan House (birthplace of abstract artist Piet Mondriaan) and the Armando Museum, a collection of works by the famed Dutch painter.

It's a bit more inside the main plaza and you can't miss it cause it's very beautiful, not as big as the other gate but still amazing

Koppelpoort

The Koppelpoort is a city gate in Amersfoort. It is a combination of land and water gate. The name is probably derived from the East Middle Dutch word Coppel meaning meadow
