The Gouda Cheese Market is a historic weekly trading event held in the town center of Gouda every Thursday morning from April to August, where farmers and traders negotiate the sale of traditionally-made Gouda cheese with handshake deals that have continued for centuries. Visitors witness the spectacle of cheese trading at the Weighing House (Waag), where cheeses are delivered on wagonettes and weighed after sale.
