Noordhavenpoort, Medieval city gate in Zierikzee, Netherlands

The Noordhavenpoort features two gable ends made of natural stone, with an outer and inner portal connected by a winding pathway between them.

Built in the 14th century, this gate controlled access to the harbor of Zierikzee and formed part of the city walls with twenty defensive towers.

The structure maintains its position as one of the Netherlands' Top 100 monuments, representing the architectural achievements of medieval Dutch fortification design.

Visitors can find the Noordhavenpoort at number 2 Noordhavenpoort street, within walking distance of Zierikzee's central attractions and transportation links.

The gate incorporates a courtyard area between its two portals, combining defensive architecture with Flemish Renaissance elements from 1559.
