The tower owes its nickname to the shape of the hood, which is reminiscent of the tip of a pepper box.
This tower is the symbol of the city of Zwolle. Just like Utrecht has the Domtoren and Groningen the Martini, Zwolle has its Peperbus.

The Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren (Our Lady's Tower), also known as the Peperbus (Pepper Pot), is Zwolle's city tower. At 75 meters tall, it's one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. The tower is part of the Basilica of Our Lady of the Assumption and offers stunning views of Zwolle and the surrounding area.
