        Kiek in de Kök is an artillery tower from the 15th century with a museum and a viewing point.
        ›Kiek in de Kök‹ translates as ›look into the kitchen‹. The tower got its name because it was said that you could look into the pots and pans of the residents of the lower town's kitchens from its upper windows.
