The most remarkable thing about this tower from 1542? The spire is missing, while it is clearly visible on old building plans. "What the reason is, remains a mystery. Either people were afraid that the tower would fall, or the money was simply gone. In any case, you can now look out beautifully from the top."

The town hall is a national monument dating from 1652. It was rebuilt in 1739. It served as the meeting place of the Waterland Union and as the town hall of Ransdorp until 1811. The building then served as the town hall of the municipality of the same name until 1921. It was extensively restored in 1924 and became a national monument in 1970. It is now a residential building with commercial premises.
