This watch and watchtower was built in the 15th century as a rampart tower. Nowadays it houses a restaurant, where you can still find ornaments from the 17th century.

The tower, built in the middle of the 15th century as a wall tower, was raised to "play tower" by the city architect Peter van Blokhout around 1646 and restored in 1888 by J.J. Weve. Above the entrance are two copies of facing bricks (the originals of which are in the Gemeentemuseum), the top one is dated 1646. The Belvédère is clearly visible from the Waal bridge towards Nijmegen.
