New Market

The Nieuwmarkt square extends across a large cobblestone area surrounded by traditional Dutch buildings, restaurants, and market stalls functioning as a community center.

The square originated in the 16th century when Amsterdam expanded eastward, establishing a marketplace that became essential for local commerce and trade activities.

Daily markets fill the square with vendors selling fresh produce, flowers, and traditional Dutch foods while the medieval Waag building stands as a central monument.

The pedestrian area connects directly to metro station Nieuwmarkt and remains accessible through multiple tram lines stopping within 300 meters distance.

The square transforms into different specialized markets throughout the week, including an organic farmers market, antique sales, and seasonal holiday celebrations.
