The Koppelpoort is a medieval gate in the Dutch town Amersfoort. Constructed around 1425, the Koppelpoort is a sublime example of medieval defensive architecture. It is a combination of a land- and water-gate and is part of the second city wall of Amersfoort, which is constructed between 1380 and 1450 AD.
