Rising prominently at the intersection of busy streets and canals, the Munttoren (Mint Tower) is a distinctive clock tower that marks the boundary where the Amstel River meets the bustling Rokin. Built in the early 17th century, it once housed the city’s mint during times of crisis. Today, it stands as a recognizable Amsterdam landmark, easily visible while you explore the renowned flower market or stroll by the cafés and shops in the area. Delve into its history as you take in the chiming bells, cast by the famous Hemony brothers. Although the tower itself isn’t open for tours, its exterior and proximity to vibrant nightlife and cultural sites make it a worthwhile stop on your city itinerary.
