Amersfoort - house Tinnenburg
Tinnenburg (also described as "Tynnenborch") is a fortified wall house built in the first city wall. Construction started around 1300, on the site of the first city wall. From this house, access to the city by water was monitored. On the other side of the water, also on the site of the first city wall, has stood a similar house, named "Rommelenburg". The two houses were connected by a kind of water gate. The start of the arch of that gate can still be seen on the side of Tinnenburg ("restored").
