Waaggebouw

The 17th‑century Waaggebouw is Alkmaar’s ornate weigh house on the lively Waagplein — a photogenic mix of Dutch gabled architecture, clock tower details and seasonal cheese‑market activity (Apr–Sept, Fridays). Shoot façades, architectural details and market scenes. Best light is golden hour and blue hour when the stonework warms and the square clears; arrive early on market days for front‑row views. The square is pedestrianised; limited street parking but several public garages within a 5–10 min
