The Dom Tower is a famous landmark in Utrecht, the Netherlands. It is the tallest church tower in the country and the symbol of the city. The tower is located in the heart of Utrecht, next to the Dom Church, which was built in the 14th century.
The construction of the Dom Tower began in 1321 and it was completed in 1382. The tower is 112.5 meters tall and has 14 bells, including the famous "bourdon" bell, which weighs 9,800 kilograms. Visitors can climb the tower's 465 steps to the top for a breathtaking view of the city and the surrounding countryside.
The Dom Tower has had a tumultuous history. In 1674, a severe storm caused the nave of the Dom Church to collapse, leaving the tower standing alone. Since then, the tower has been a symbol of resilience for the people of Utrecht. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of the city's rich history and culture.
