Munttoren 1487
The Munttoren or Munt is a tower in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It stands on the busy Muntplein square, where the Amstel river and the Singel canal meet, near the flower market and the eastern end of the Kalverstraat shopping street
The tower was originally part of the Regulierspoort, one of the main gates in Amsterdam’s medieval city wall. The gate, built around the years 1480, consisted of two towers and a guard house. After the gate went up in flames in a 1618 fire, only the guard house and part of the western tower remained standing. The tower was then rebuilt in Amsterdam Renaissance style in 1620, with an eight-sided top half and elegant open spire designed by Hendrick de Keyser,featuring a clockwork with four clockfaces and a carillon of bells. The name of the tower refers to the fact that the guard house on side of it was used to mint coins in the 17th century.
The asset is my first commissioned assignment, and the client is so kind to release it public for everyone to enjoy.
The Munttoren is a heavy asset, so be adviced. I am trying to lower assets in the future.
