Review:

Sint Janskerk (Saint John’s Church) is a beautiful 15th-century Gothic church with a soaring 140-foot red limestone tower and one of the city’s most famous landmarks. Named after John the Baptist, the church is one of the seven Maasgotic churches and chapels in the center of Maastricht and is built in marlstone. The focal point of the church is the red tower, which was influenced by the Dom tower in Utrecht and houses a 15th-century wooden belfry with a clock from 1687. Visitors can climb the tower via very narrow spiral stairs and be rewarded with spectacular views of the city from the top.
