Fotografie + English: Netherlands-4096 - Montelbaanstoren (Taken on September 20, 2013, Sony NEX-7)

Montelbaanstoren, built in 1512, is a piece of the protective wall that still stands today; one of just a few small sections that remain throughout the city. The tower housed Amsterdam's military guards, stationed there in order to spy any approaching armies who may be trying to overtake the city, making their way towards the port.
Historians say the tower was also a gathering place for sailors who would meet at the base of Montelbaanstoren before heading off to far-away lands on long sea voyages.
The tower is located at a canal called Oude Schans. It stands much as it was in 1512, except for the addition of a decorative spire and clock in 1606. Rumor has it that after the clock was added, the tower garnered the nickname "Silly Jack" - Malle Jaap in Dutch - because the clock's bells were rather unreliable and rang at strange times of the day or wouldn't ring at all for days on end.
