Coffeeshop Rusland in Amsterdam
Coffeeshop Rusland this is the second oldest cannabis store (a.k.a coffeeshop) of Amsterdam. It’s named Rusland – which means Russia in Dutch. It was founded in 1975 – more than 40 years old!
Rusland Street
Coffeeshop Rusland located just outside the Red Light District on a street that is called Rusland. The street connects Oudezijds Achterburgwal with Kloveniersburgwal and is an extension of Sint Agnietenstraat. It is a short but wide street in De Wallen area.
The street is so wide because the left part was originally the Raamsloot, which was filled in in the 16th century. The street is sandwiched between bridge 216 over the OZ Achterburgwal and Oost-Indische Huisbrug (bridge 223) over the Kloveniersburgwal.
The name of the street already appeared in a deed from 1403 with the name Willem Ruusschentuin. Over the years, this name was corrupted via ‘t Ruyssenlandt, ‘t Russeland and ‘t Ruslant into Rusland. In the book Een schitterend gebrek by Arthur Japin, the main character (Casanova’s love) lives on this street.
The very first coffee shop in Amsterdam was Mellow Yellow not Coffeeshop Rusland, but Mellow Yellow didn’t have an official license for selling cannabis. However, coffeeshop Rusland did manage to get a license from the City of Amsterdam. Thence, Rusland became Amsterdam’s 1st official licensed coffeeshop – and thus in the world!

Its a great shop man , the white russian is a great bit of bud!
I went in there at Christmas. Nice decor and facilities. The guy behind the counter was a bit moody but he was Russian so I could make allowances.
I’ve been to Rusland! It’s a great place to chill and the bud is fire. I had the super lemon haze from here it was really good!
Never been but only heard good things
haven’t been since the refurb but used to stay at the Raddisson Blu opposite it and it was my go to shop for a few trips, lots of people to talk to in there back then and the White Russian was a speciality of theirs
Was in there yesterday good it has smoking lounge downstairs plenty of room in there and is a nice shop and nice weed.
