With its cheese market and historic inner city, Alkmaar is a draw for tourists and the region’s centre for culture, sport and nightlife.
It is known that the city of Alkmaar already had a weighing house for cheese in 1365
The name Alkmaar was first recorded in a tenth-century record describing a gift of two farmsteads by Count Dirk I to the newly established abbey of Egmond. This gift dates from before 939, the year in which the count died.
In 1254 Count Floris V granted Alkmaar a town charter. Located as it was at a meeting of waterways, Alkmaar charged tolls and levied duties on the transhipment of goods.
In 1573, the Spaniards attacked Alkmaar. The city used boiling tar and burning branches thrown from its new city walls to fight the Spaniards, who had set up their camp in Oudorp. From 1600 onwards, Alkmaar developed from a commercial town with its own fleet into a market and supply centre for the wider area.
