Muntplein, Historic square and bridge in central Amsterdam, Netherlands
Muntplein functions as both the widest bridge in Amsterdam and a central square, spanning across the intersection of Singel canal and Amstel river.
The square inherited its name from the Munttoren tower, which operated as a mint during the 1672 military occupation when Amsterdam created its own currency.
The square marks the southern end of Kalverstraat shopping street and connects to the Bloemenmarkt, where flower vendors display their products on floating barges.
Six tram lines, including numbers 4, 9, 14, 16, 24, and 25, provide transport connections through Muntplein, making it a central point for city navigation.
The Muntplein bridge holds the distinction of being designated as bridge number 1 in Amsterdam's extensive network of canal crossings.
