Summary from Nederlands / Dutch Wikipedia (nlwiki)

De Blauwe toren was een kasteelcomplex met een imposant stenen donjon dat gelegen was aan de zuidwestelijke kant binnen de vesting Gorinchem ter hoogte van de huidige Tolsteeg, Duivelsgracht en Buiten de Waterpoort aan de rivier de Merwede. Het bouwwerk dat er tussen 1461 en 1578 heeft gestaan, heeft mede door beschrijvingen van de Gorcumse kroniekschrijver Abraham Kemp en de ontdekking van funderingen in 1983 een bijna mythische status gekregen.
