[Netherlands] Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren (Amersfoort)
complete
AutiPat
I would like to suggest a stamp of the tallest tower in the city of Amersfoort. It is the third highest tower in the Netherlands and built in Medieval. It is also the center of the National Coordinates of the country. It would be nice to create more national stamps of the Netherlands.

Yann2 Thank you. The Netherlands does have more eyecatching buildings and interesting places. But since I live nearby city of Amersfoort, I would like to suggest this ancient church tower. If you wish, I could post some more buildings found in Amersfoort like the St. Jorischurch or the 'Koppelpoort' not far away from the 'tower. At least Amersfoort has its own flag (second photo). Every township in the Netherlands do have their own flag.
Greetings.

AutiPat: This is a nice, interesting building as well, thank you for adding it. BTW - you might have forgotten to upvote your own proposal, lol?
It only shows 2 votes, and I don't see your avatar in the list yet.
Netherlands could definitely have more Location stamps - Amigo97 has posted a topic suggesting the
Amsterdam canals
, and maybe other Dutch users could come with more suggestions? That works well, there are revisions happening in both the UK and France stamps, initiated by people's comments and requests here. Good luck! 🍀🙂🌟

AutiPat: Nederland heeft zeker meer mooie gebouwen! Bedankt voor je suggestie, hopelijk kunnen we meer zegels krijgen en eventueel ook een zegelset :) Kijk ook even tussen mijn ideeën om ze te upvoten.
EN: The Netherlands definitely has more beautiful buildings! Thanks for your suggestion, hopefully we can get more stamps and eventually a stamp set. Take a look between my ideas for the Netherlands to upvote them.

A search for
Netherlands
might help find them all. I was surprised on looking at the results, and discovering more of your proposals which I had not seen yet. Great work, it's nice to see the passion and dedication. Good luck, Amigo97! ✨🚀🍀🙂

AutiPat, thank you for the suggestion.
I found the Wikipedia page for this church tower :
"The
Onze-Lieve-Vrouwetoren
is a church tower in Amersfoort. The Late Gothic building is 98.33 metres tall and reaches high above the inner city. It is one of the most eye-catching monuments in town and the third highest church tower in the Netherlands. The nickname of the tower is Lange Jan. The church that belonged to the tower was destroyed by a gunpowder explosion in the 18th century. "...as well as
many, many images of it
. Adding these so people can get a better idea of what it is, and how significant. Good luck to you, I would love to see more Dutch location stamps! 👍🙂🚀
