Hanau is the birthplace of the Grimm brothers known the world over for their fairytales. In the…read morecenter of town at the Marktplatz every Wednesday and Saturday this market is held. There are about a hundred stalls selling fresh seasonal produce, meats, fish, cheeses and other eatable items. There are also a few shops for a meal when at the market. It seems to be a common activity for the locals who come and do some shopping and hang out at the many cafes and eating places at the market and spend a morning / afternoon there. It is apparently one of the biggest markets in Hessen. The shops were good, quality and selection was good and the prices very reasonable. I would come here every week if I lived in the area.

So lovely to walk around here. There's a shopping center and ice skating rink outdoors. The…read moremonument of the Grimm brothers is right in the middle located in front of a beautiful building.

Really nice, although it's not as big as the market taking place in another area of Marburg. What…read moremakes it special and worth seeing is the location with the old marketplace and the city hall from medieval times in the old part of marburg.

I love open air farmer's markets. In most larger towns across Europe there will be some form of…read moreoutdoor market. The market in Mainz happens to be one of the best in the region. Seeing all the colors of fresh produce and flowers as well as the fresh baked items sold throughout the market will leave a positive impression on your day. You can't help being happy from the experience. If I could only live there, I would eat healthier, drink better wine and enjoy what the region has to offer. It would become part of my weekly journey through life.

Definitely worth a visit when you are in Mainz! There are food vendors (selling cheese, honey,…read morelocal wine, vegetables, etc.) and restaurants (we ended up with fried fish and potato salad--heavy but delicious!), plus a few cafes and a weekly wine tasting (which looked fun but we didn't join this time), all in the shadow of the beautiful cathedral. This is the place to be seen on Saturdays!

This is a great twice-weekly farmers market. There are lots of choices beyond just produce, cheese,…read moremeats, flowers, etc. I would have given it five stars if it focused more on local. I'm pretty sure the grapes and oranges are not locally sources this time of year. You have to hand it to them, this is a sweet location!

I was here with my husband on the 12th of December. Very excited to see the xmas market that some…read morepeople call "the most magical," the xmas twinkling star market of Wiesbaden. After purchasing the obligatory gluwein, my husband and I started our 2 hour march along the stalls. Having studied in this region 37 years ago, I was looking for the black forest wooden goods. I found them in a walk-in store! I was so excited as I have not seen these in all markets down last year's Danube trip and this year's markets north of Wiesbaden on the Rhine. I entered and my empty wine mug was spotted by the lady with pink vest and black hair, she wanted me to leave. I did and threw it out in a bin nearby. I went back in and the lady asked me to put my backpack in front, I did. But your German persistence ruined the push to buy your goods! I could have lingered for hours in this store! I am disable with my knee right now and constant dinging just took my childhood wonder in to the .........! Thank you for ruining an otherwise magical experience for an American in Germany at Xmas!!!

A conglomeration of some fifty kiosks and carts, the bulk Cash-only and fluent only in German, it is beginning at 08h00 that the Altstadt area begins to fill with patrons, several Chefs in white seen examining Produce or organic Meats while roasters fired their grills in preparation for the nine hours to follow. Located at Konstablerwache 12, a nearby metro stop providing access since parking fills quickly, it was after taking a look around that stop one was made at a table between Vogelsberger Kartoffel und Bärlauchbratwurst and Original Vogelsberger Holzofenbrot, the former's Currywurst intensely spiced but a touch sweet while Pastries from two Women first impressed by way of their Caramelized Hazelnut Braid, then with soft and springy Doughnuts. A bit underwhelmed by Vogelsberger Holzofenbrot's Berliner, the Jam off-centered and skimpy, better bites were found amidst Bee Sting Cake shellacked in Almonds as well as their buttery Pie Crust brushed with Custard and topped with poached Rhubarb juxtaposing big chunks of Brown Sugar Streusel. Strolling further, a few choices including made-to-order Waffles debated, it was instead on Sausage and Pastry that Euros were again spent, the handmade Brat and Rindwurst from Bio-Bauernhof Wingenfeld both snappy over a great grind while Maja's Backwaren impressed with the best Pretzel found in Frankfurt for just 1€. Performing equally well with Marble Cake, the Crumb course but moist with Butter, it was a bit unfortunate that most of Maja's goods were sold in family-size portions, though the Poppy Seed Danish called Verschiedene Kaffeestückchen was delicious and managable for one while Donauwelle weighing almost half a kilogram more than justified its 4€ price by eating something like a Cream Cheese Brownie dialed up by Sour Cherries.

It is big enough that it has everything you need and room to peruse without bumping into folks, but small enough to not be overwhelming. Wide selection of meats, veggies, fruits & baked goods. There is one row of stalls dedicated entirely to wines and apple wine varietals. The apple wine with elderberry was delicious! For those more inclined towards beer, there was a beer stall offering Helles and Dunkel. I will definitely be back!
