About Gouda

Gouda is a canal-ringed town in South Holland, with a Gothic town hall, a church of tall stained-glass windows and the cheese that took its name.

Gouda lies in South Holland, north-east of Rotterdam, on the Hollandse IJssel river and ringed by canals. At its centre stands the Markt, a broad square dominated by the Stadhuis, a Gothic town hall of the 1440s with a carillon whose figures act out the granting of the town's charter. The Waag, a weigh house of 1668 on the same square, is now a cheese museum.
