At the weekly market in Giessen, around 70 traders and self-producers offer their products every Wednesday and Saturday from 7:00 to 14:00.

Since 1894, the weekly market in Giessen has stretched from Brandplatz, along the then-established Marktlaubenstraße with its historic market arbors, to Lindenplatz.

The wide range of products includes flowers and plants, bread and baked goods, eggs, poultry, game, meat and sausage products, dairy products, fruit, vegetables, nuts and legumes, herbs, tea and honey, as well as Mediterranean specialties and other culinary delights. Among them there is also a rich offer of organic products. The variety of goods and smells, the personal service and advice, and the inviting atmosphere attract numerous customers from Giessen and the surrounding area. Especially on Saturday there is a lot of activity at the market, where you can meet people and have a chat.
