You're standing by the Zuiderkerk in the Nieuwmarkt neighbourhood. Look up at the tower, which dominates the area. At the bottom there's a square stone section. Above it sits an eight-sided sandstone section, with free-standing columns at the corners. And right on top, a wooden spire covered in lead. Since a makeover in 2017, the top part is dark grey again, its original colour.
