What is a krul?
The krul (Dutch for "curl") is Amsterdam's open-air spiral urinal, a cast-iron street fixture that has stood on the canals for over a century. It is always free and never closes, but it is men only and offers no privacy, which draws fair criticism: there is no free public equivalent for women, a gap that has been challenged in the Dutch courts.
