Café De Sluyswacht

The house was built in the 1690s for the keeper of the St Anthoniesluis lock. It became a café after the lock stopped being used. It leans visibly and is protected as a national monument. Inside are old beams, a stone floor and a split-level room, and the terrace looks over the Oudeschans canal and Rembrandt's former house.
