Noordermarkt

Noordermarkt is a public square in Amsterdam’s Jordaan neighbourhood known for its historic church and regular market activity. The square has been a local market centre since the 17th century.

A lively farmers’ market operates on Saturdays and a flea/antiques market is held on Mondays; stalls cluster around the central plaza and the historic church. The square is a compact, active meeting place flanked by cafes and canal-side streets.

The square and its church were established during Amsterdam’s 17th-century expansion when the Jordaan was developed for housing and commerce. The market tradition has continued intermittently from that era to the present day.

Located in the Jordaan district of central Amsterdam, the square sits a short walk from the Prinsengracht and other central canals and is within Amsterdam-Centrum.

• Market days: Saturday mornings host a well-established organic farmers' market, while Mondays feature a flea and antiques market that draws locals and visitors.
