Kronenburgertoren, Medieval fortified tower in Nijmegen, Netherlands.

The Kronenburgertoren features thick stone walls rising in two sections, each with walkways and battlements supported by brick arcades.

Built between 1425 and 1426, this round fortress tower served as part of the defensive structures that protected the city of Nijmegen.

The tower stands within Kronenburger Park, designated as a national monument under registration number 522957, preserving Dutch military architecture.

Located at Parkweg 11 in Nijmegen, the tower contains four levels, with the lower two sections topped by masonry dome vaults.

The structure underwent extensive renovation from 1878 to 1883 under architect Pierre Cuypers, integrating medieval elements into public green space.
