About us

Whoever hears the name "Gouda" immediately thinks of Cheese. Gouda Cheese is one of the best known and most eaten cheeses in the world. Gouda Cheese owes its name to the fact that this Dutch cheese has been traded for centuries in the city of Gouda. The famous Gouda Cheese is still made using traditional methods in the polders around the city. There are the cows in the meadow, that give milk daily, from which this famous cheese is made. From the polder, the farmers bring the cheeses to the center near the historical town hall, where they are traded on the cheese market.

Tourism
