Dom Tower of Utrecht

The Dom Tower of Utrecht is the tallest church tower in the Netherlands: it is 112 metres in height. The tower was built between 1321 and 1382.

In 1674 a hurricane destroyed a large part of the Dom Church, but the tower was spared. Since then church and tower aren't connected anymore.
