Weigh House (Leiden) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Weigh House (Leiden)
The Leiden Weigh House (''De Waag'' in Dutch) is a Rijksmonument located on Aalmarkt street (nr. 21). It was designed by Pieter Post around 1657 and opened in 1659.〔(Pieter Post (Dutch architect) – Encyclopedia Britannica ). Britannica.com.〕 For centuries, merchants came here to weigh and trade a variety of goods. In addition to being a weigh house, the Leiden Weigh House has hosted a variety of engagements and stately celebrations over the centuries. Notably, Govert Bidloo converted an attic room into an autopsy room to study the human body.〔http://www.watdewaagbewoog.nl/〕 The weigh house was in use as an actual weigh house until 1972, when the last unit of cheese was sold.〔()〕 Nowadays, the building serves as a cultural monument, houses a gallery, is used as a concert hall, and can even host matrimonial ceremonies.〔http://www.stedelijkconcertgebouwleiden.nl/concerten/〕〔(Trouwlocatie | Trouwtarieven en trouwlokaties ).
