Gouda is one of the most popular types of cheese in the whole world, so it makes sense that the city of Gouda has its own cheese market with the old-fashioned ritual to go with it. Gouda cheese market is unmissable for anyone who loves centuries-old traditions and, of course, cheese.
Cheese has been made and traded in Gouda for centuries. To this day, the famous Gouda cheese is still made in the area and the cows that provide the milk for this wonderful cheese graze on the polders around the city of Gouda.
Gouda cheese market is held on Thursday mornings from April to September, except on public holidays. The distinctive massive wheels of cheese are delivered by horse and cart to the market and then weighed in a specially dedicated building. They are arranged in a neat stack and then sold in front of Gouda’s city hall.
