    De Goudse Waag

    Local farmers bring their wagons to this market square to have their cheese weighed, inspected and sold there; just like people have done for centuries. The sold consignment is transported to De Gouden Waag on the horse-drawn wagon, where it is weighed. This is still done during the cheese market, which is held every Thursday morning from April to the end of August. It’s a top tourist attraction!
