AREA
De Pijp is one of the most iconic neighborhoods in Amsterdam, dating back to the late 19th century. Originally an expansion of the rapidly growing city, it has evolved into a lively, beloved area with its own unique character. A major milestone was the establishment of the Heineken brewery in 1886, which put the neighborhood on the international map.
Today, De Pijp is known for its energy and vibrancy, with the bustling Albert Cuypmarkt and the green Sarphatipark at its heart. Artists and writers such as Piet Mondriaan, Carel Willink, and Gerard Reve lived and worked here, contributing to the creative and cosmopolitan atmosphere still present in the many cafés and restaurants.
The neighborhood is well connected by public transport, including the North-South metro line and several tram routes, with quick access to the A10 ring road and the A2 and A1 highways.
The origin of the name “De Pijp” is debated. The most common explanation refers to an old gas or drainage pipe that ran through the then-unbuilt area. Another theory points to the long, narrow shape of the neighborhood between the Amstel and Boerenwetering, which resembles a pipe. A third, less supported explanation links the name to a former nickname for the Lange Leidsedwarsstraat. Whatever the true origin, the name is now inseparably tied to this unique Amsterdam neighborhood.
