Regional products directly in the city center
The Jena weekly market provides a reliable destination for environmentally conscious and fresh shopping. Four times a week, regional producers present their goods. The diverse range includes, among other things:
- Seasonal fruit and vegetables
- Fresh baked goods, cheese and sausage specialties
- Fish products directly from the vendor
- Large selection of plants and flowers
Important information regarding temporary relocation
Normally, vendors set up their stalls directly on the central Marktplatz. However, if major public events take place there – such as the traditional Kulturarena Jena or themed city festivals – the market must relocate.
During these periods, visitors can find the sales stalls in the immediately adjacent streets:
- Kirchplatz
- Johannisstraße
- Rathausgasse
Classic wicker basket for market shopping
A sturdy and stylish wicker basket is ideal for transporting fresh vegetables and regional products home safely.
