Schrelerstoren

We could translate Schrelerstoren to English as Weeper's Tower. Originally, it was a part of Walls of Amsterdam. This waterfront tower was constructed in 1480.
A long long time ago, many wives farewelled their seaman husbands on this tower. Of course, crying and sadness was unavoidable. Therefore, it has the name of Weeper's Tower.
