Gouda 1668

The Gouda waag, (or Kaaswaag) can be found on the Gouda Market.
The building is designed by Pieter Post in 1668 after the city of Gouda got the rights to have a Waag.
A Waag is nothing more then a weighing house. With the state giving you the right to have one, you can ask taxes for using one, this way the towns who had one got very rich of there cheeses.

Gouda cheese

The cheese is named after the master of Gouda, not because it was produced in or around that city, but because it was traded there. In the Middle Ages, Dutch cities could obtain certain feudal rights which gave them primacy or a total monopoly on certain goods. Within the County of Holland, Gouda acquired market rights on cheese, the sole right to have a market in which the county's farmers could sell their cheese. All the cheeses would be taken to the market square in Gouda to be sold. Teams consisting of the guild of cheese-porters, identified by distinct differently colored straw hats, carried the farmers' cheeses, which typically weighed about 16 kg (35 lb), in barrows. Buyers then sampled the cheeses and negotiated a price using a ritual bargaining system called handjeklap in which buyers and sellers clap each other's hands and shout out prices. Once a price was agreed upon, the porters would carry the cheese to the weighing house and complete the sale.
