Vischpoort

Harderwijk's last medieval city gate, standing by the old fish market.

The Vischpoort is the only surviving medieval gate of Harderwijk. It stands near the old fish market, where the town's waterfront history is easiest to picture.

It is a small sight, but a good one. The gate marks the old edge of the city and gives a walk from the centre to the water a clear historical hinge.
