The “Staalmeesterbrug” (bridge 227) is a charming wooden drawbridge over the Groenburgwal in Amsterdam. It offers a nice view of the “Zuiderkerk”, the church once painted by Claude Monet. ⛪️ 🎨👨🏼🎨
Named after the Staalmeesters (fabric inspectors) from Rembrandt’s famous painting, the bridge is a favorite for tourists, often decorated with locks (just as easy removed again by the city). 📷 ❤️🔒
