Gouda Cheese Market

For centuries Gouda cheese has been traded at the Markt in Gouda on Thursday. This year, from the 6th of April until the 29 August, the traditional cheese market will take place every Thursday from 10 to 12.30 hrs. (except on Ascension Day on the 9th of May). And just like in the olden days, farmers and cheese traders agreed on a price by the clapping of hands. Besides the world-famous cheese, you can also enjoy stalls where syrup waffles and ‘poffertjes’ (Dutch mini pancakes) are made and where craftspeople demonstrate ancient skills.
