History of the Albert Cuyp Market
The market began as a loose collection of street vendors and hand carts.

The Albert Cuyp street, the Dapperstreet, the Ten Kate street and lindengracht street were in 1910 designated as vendor streets. In 1912 the market was a daytime market which is open 6 days a week. Originally the street was accessible during the market, but nowadays, the market is closed to all traffic.
