The Oudemanhuispoort consists of multiple historic buildings and is one of the most characteristic locations in the University Quarter. The complex gets its name from the entrance through the book market ('Oudemanhuispoort') and features a unique historical courtyard. It is currently partially used by the Faculty of Humanities and supporting services of the University of Amsterdam (UvA). The remaining spaces are arranged as temporary student housing. The UvA intends to renovate the Oudemanhuispoort complex in phases.
