Nieuwmarkt is an Amsterdam Metro station in the centre of Amsterdam, Netherlands.
The Station
Nieuwmarkt Metro station opened in 1980 and is served by 3 lines: the 51 (Amsterdam Centraal–Amstelveen), 53 (Amsterdam Centraal–Gaasperplas), and 54 (Amsterdam Centraal–Gein).
The station is located close to the Weigh House (De Waag) of Amsterdam.

The artwork in the Nieuwmarkt Metro station is designed to evoke the 1975 Nieuwmarkt Riots, when Amsterdam residents protested the demolition of homes to make room for subway constructions.
