Interesting facts about this location

Brusselpoort

The Brusselpoort is the sole remaining city gate of the original twelve gates of the city of Mechelen, Belgium. This imposing structure dates from the 13th century. Because of her exceptional height, towering above the other gates, she was also called the 'Overste poort' (superior gate). In the 16th century, the towers were lowered and the roof construction was altered to her present configuration.
