Maarten van 't Kruijs (18 February 1813 – 30 March 1885) was a Dutch chess player and organist. In the international chess world, Van 't Kruijs is primarily known for being the namesake of the Van 't Kruijs Opening, 1.e3. Living in a time before the World Chess Championship, he was considered the strongest chess player in the Netherlands, and he was considered one of the strongest in the world at the time by his contemporaries, including Adolf Anderssen. He was a well-developed player who won various Dutch chess championships between 1851 and 1878. Despite such high praise, little is known of Van 't Kruijs due to his timidity and overt life of privacy.
