From September 1941 onwards, Jews in Amsterdam were allowed to shop only at special Jewish markets. These were set up in squares and playgrounds that could be closed off. It was yet another way to segregate the Jews from the non-Jewish Dutch.
In Amsterdam, the Jewish markets could be found in the playgrounds at Waterlooplein, Joubertstraat, and Gaaspstraat. Later, another market opened at Minervaplein.
