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.

Secret cocktailbar hidden behind a mysterious door. Atmosphere of the Roaring Twenties, the era of Prohibiton, Moonshining and Al Capone.

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

Great to spend the day with your kids. It's very well maintained and the stuff are very helpful; a lot of different animals, playgrounds, kids train, small restaurants, gift shops, ice cream shops, etc. Watch out for bees when staying in the outdoor restaurant. Must get baby/kids stroller, the place is huge and involves a lot of walking (FYI they do provide there at €2 and deposit of €10.)

This site has great historical value yet it has wonderful cafes in front of it for you to relax and eat and drink while enjoying the view! The lack of tourists makes the visit even more fun. The whole area is great and worth a visit. The people don't seem to be sick of tourists because the town is undiscovered.

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

What a nice town Amersfoort is and this town gate is really unique, as it combines a water and land entrance.
