Oude Kerk in Delft
Old Church. The bell in the clock tower
is only ever struck when there's a royal funeral, because it
weighs 9 tons and more regular
ringing of the bell would make the tower fall down. Strangely, the bell
will be struck tomorrow as
I write this, 30th March 2004, for the funeral of Queen Juliana.

Oude Kerk II
The kings and queens of the Netherlands are buried in Delft, which makes the
town the 'sacred city' of the nation. As a result, it's the only city of
that size without a red-light district!
