The Waag was once one of the three most important city gates of Amsterdam. During the Dutch Golden Age, the city expanded and the medieval city walls were demolished. De Waag has survived as a weighing house.

De Waag, the former Waagenhaus of Amsterdam dates from the 15th century and was originally a city gate. It stands in the middle of the Nieuwmarkt and is the oldest secular building in Amsterdam.
