The Eastern Gate (Oostpoort) in Delft was built around 1400. Around 1510 the towers were enhanced with an additional octagonal floor and high spires. This is the only city gate remaining in Delft, the others were demolished in the nineteenth century. It currently serves as an art gallery and private residence.
