Koornbrug from the water
The canopy creates a striking view along the water and offers shelter in a rain shower. From the bridge you see the terraces, the Fish Market and the façades on both quays.
The history of Koornbrug
The 1825 roof protected the grain traded here from wind and rain, making the bridge quite literally a covered market.
