Description
Colorized photo from 1900
Original Title: Ghent
Location: Opgeeistenlaan 1, Ghent 9000, Belgium
This building is known as the Rabot Sluice, its a device that lets water into a city in case it was under siege. It was built in 1488, and was originally a part of their wall that surrounded the city. It was rebuilt a few times, it was a factory a few times, and now currently stands as a monument, trying to stand out against modern buildings.
