Helmstedt weekly market puts greater focus on regional producers
On the market square in front of the town hall, new stalls bring fresh produce from the district straight into the old town.

The Helmstedt weekly market on the historic market square in front of the town hall expands its range of regional producers in 2026. New stalls bring fruit, vegetables, baked goods and specialities from the Helmstedt district straight into the old town. With its focus on short distances and seasonal produce, the city aims to strengthen the market as a lively meeting point. Between the half-timbered backdrop and the view of the town hall, the market invites visitors to shop and linger. It takes place several times a week.
