About Barbaratoren (Gouda)

Towers, Architecture, Interesting Places, Bell Towers

De Barbaratoren is het restant van de afgebroken kapel van het Sint-Barbaragasthuis op de hoek van de Kuiperstraat en de Keizerstraat in de Nederlandse stad Gouda.

Het Barbaragasthuis is in 1468 gebouwd door het Sint-Barbaragilde. In 1505 bouwde het gilde bij het gasthuis een kapel. De heilige Barbara was een van de veertien zogenaamde noodhelpers. Zij werd met name te hulp geroepen als beschermster tegen de pest. In de 16e eeuw deden gasthuis en kapel ook dienst als armenschool. Na de hervorming werd de kapel in 1581 door het stadsbestuur verkocht. In 1690 werden er op de plaats van het schip drie woningen gebouwd. Een ander deel van de kapel diende in die tijd als paardestal.
