On the corner of the Markt and the Waterstraat stands a pothuis that connected the two main thoroughfares of the medieval city. Pothuizen on corner locations were strategically particularly valuable: they offered shelter to passers-by and formed a recognisable point of orientation in the city. This pothuis on the Markt, corner of the Waterstraat, is a rare and well-preserved reminder of the medieval urban development of Zaltbommel.
