Campveerse toren, Fortified Gothic tower in Veere, Netherlands

The Campveerse Toren features alternating layers of red brick and white Belgian limestone, creating a distinctive pattern on its exterior walls.

Built in the 15th century to protect Veere's harbor, the tower later served as a lighthouse from 1824 to 1924, guiding ships into port.

The building received Rijksmonument status in 1967 and was acquired by Vereniging Hendrick de Keyser in 2005 for preservation purposes.

Located at coordinates 51.55003, 3.6695, the tower contains a restaurant with a dining room on the first floor accessible by stone stairs.

A whale jawbone hung on the tower wall until 2018, when it required removal due to moss formation affecting its condition.
