Amsterdam Gate Pediment (outside)

3D Model

Netherlands, 1654-1655 sandstone

While one side of Regulierspoort showed the town’s old symbol (a cog ship), the other displayed its new coat of arms: three St Andrew’s crosses surmounted by an imperial crown and flanked by two lions. After his visit in 1488, Emperor Maximilian awarded the city the right to include the crown in its heraldic emblem, in gratitude for the warm reception he had received.
