The town of Enkhuizen is a living museum in itself. The Zuiderkerk, or Southern
Church, with its spiraling tower and copper-clad roof, dominates the skyline of the
city, assisted by the wooden bell tower of Enkhuizen's other church, the “Wester.”
Together with the ramparts and fortress walls, Enkhuizen ensures its future by pre-
serving its rich past.
