Dijkpoort

Dijkpoort

The Dijkpoort is a 14th century citygate in the Dutch City Hattem. In 1908 the gate was restored, with help from the architect Pierre Cuypers, a wall walk and corner turrets were added, recognizable by the different color of stones.

Outside the gate was formerly a newer front gate with two round towers. A compound wall is still standing, where are the cannon and Arquebus embrasures are located.
