Zwolle

A view from Museum the Fundatie in Zwolle at the tower of the "Basilica Our Lady Assumption". The nickname of this tower is "the pepper shaker" due to its shape. The tower is 75 meters high and dates originally from 1463 but after several fires its current shape with the cupola top is from 1815.
It is a very wet weekend here at the moment as you can see at the raindrops on the window. Our summer has lasted only one week so far.

  7. Yes, it does look like a pepper shaker. Gee, I think my Mother had a set similar to this a long time ago. Lovely old building and hope the sun shines soon for you again :)

  8. That is an interesting composition. The raindrops make it special. Sorry to hear your summer is not good. We are having rain too when we don't usually at this time of the year.
