Cycling

The Kruittoren was built around 1320 and forms the northwestern corner tower in the brick wall of the Nieuwstad. Most wall towers in the Netherlands were built in the time when people still shot with bow and arrow. That is why the distance between the rampart towers is about 67 meters.

The Hanseatic city of Zutphen is bursting with authentic buildings and historic towers. This also applies to the Kruittoren. This tower, which was part of the city wall of Zutphen, was built around 1320.
