Location
Know Before You Go
- Hours: Friday 14:00–22:00; Saturday 12:00–22:00; Sunday 12:00–19:00.
- Parking: The city recommends free parking on Richard-Wagner-Straße, by the Baumarkt and Landratsamt; the market is about a 10-minute walk away. Parking in the historic old town is often strained, and wrongly parked vehicles may receive a warning fine.
- Pets: Animals, especially dogs, are prohibited from the event grounds. Visitors are asked to leave pets at home during market hours.
Tips & Advice
- Park for free on Richard-Wagner-Straße and walk the signposted 10 minutes, because parking in the narrow old town gets very tight.
- Don't block rescue routes, driveways or restricted areas in the old town, since enforcement officers patrol during market hours and issue fines.
- Leave your dog at home, because animals are banned from the grounds during the market.
- Bring children on Saturday or Sunday afternoon to use the free wooden play-mobile alongside the pony rides and carousels.
- Head inside Markt Zwanzig if the weather turns, since its indoor area is sheltered and full of handmade pyramids, ornaments and soaps.
Special Events & Promotions
- A free wooden play-mobile for children on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.
