Antique and book market

A fairytale market in the heart of The Hague 

Looking for a first edition of a favourite book, old prints, paintings or items from grandmother's time? The book and antiques market on Lange Voorhout in The Hague is the place to be. In the shade of the beautiful lime trees, stroll past stalls full of antique furniture, objects, crockery, jewellery, peculiarities, prints and books. Always remarkable is the interest in a cosy stall full of old postcards, sorted by interest and in pretty boxes. 

When is the Antiques and Book Market?

 Every Thursday and Sunday (from May to September), this Valhalla for lovers of antiques, curiosities, old prints and books, paintings and art objects is on Lange Voorhout. The market is open from 10:00 to 18:00 and admission is free.

Location of the Hague antiques and book market 

The antiques and book market is on Thursdays and Sundays on the Lange Voorhout during the summer months, from early May through September. During the winter season, the market is there only on Thursdays, when you will normally find it on the Plein. Due to the renovation of the Binnenhof, the market now also takes place on the short part of the Lange Voorhout.
