Parking near Marie Heinekenplein

Marie Heinekenplein feels like the neighbourhood’s living room: a place where residents meet up, terrace-goers linger, children play and visitors to Amsterdam get a taste of everyday city life. Anyone walking into the square from the busy Ferdinand Bolstraat immediately notices the difference in atmosphere. The city slows down a little here. Terraces line the edges of the square, bicycles are parked haphazardly, and all around you can hear a familiar mix of conversations, clinking coffee cups and trams passing by. It feels lively, but never rushed.

The square stands on historic ground. Where cafés, outdoor terraces and homes now stand, a large part of the famous Heineken Brewery once stood. For many years, this site formed an important part of industrial Amsterdam. When parts of the brewery complex were demolished in the late 1980s, space was created for new homes and a square for the neighbourhood. Since then, it has grown into one of De Pijp’s best-known meeting places. Traces of that history are still visible today. Between the square and the Stadhouderskade stands a surviving part of the old brewery, now known as the Heineken Experience. As a result, the square feels like a link between Amsterdam’s industrial past and today’s modern city life.

Interestingly, the square is not named after the brewer Gerard Heineken or the well-known brand. The name refers to Marie Heineken, a Dutch painter and a niece of Gerard Adriaan Heineken, the founder of the brewery.

Marie Heinekenplein is within walking distance of some of the neighbourhood’s best-known attractions. The Albert Cuyp Market, the Heineken Experience, Sarphati Park and the shops on Ferdinand Bolstraat are all in the immediate vicinity. As a result, the square is a natural stop-off point for many people during a day out in De Pijp.
