However, the foundation was so poor that the tower began to lean, causing the builders to stop construction four years later. You can climb the 183 steps of the tower to enjoy a magnificent view over the city.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30658\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/15092010\/Oldehove.jpg\" alt=\"Oldehove\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/15092010\/Oldehove.jpg 800w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/15092010\/Oldehove-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/15092010\/Oldehove-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bajabikes.eu\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/15092010\/Oldehove-585x293.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Spot trendy street art<\/h3>\n<p>What to do in Leeuwarden?
