Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on weekends, especially during peak hours, to fully enjoy the market before it gets crowded.
- Dress warmly in layers, as parts of the market are outdoors and medieval castles can be drafty, even with festive decorations.
- Check the event calendar for specific medieval craft demonstrations or workshops happening during your visit.
- Consider arriving by public transport or carpooling, as parking can be limited and costs extra.
- Bring cash for smaller vendors, as not all may accept card payments in the medieval market setting.
