Fresh Wednesday at the Town Square: Weekly Market with Flavor and History
On Wednesday, 03.12.2025, the Traunstein Weekly Market fills the Town Square with market atmosphere from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Local producers from Chiemgau bring seasonal goods, crafts, and regional diversity right into the old town – a shopping experience with short distances and reliable quality.
Market Character and Tradition
The weekly market is considered a fixed institution of city life in Traunstein. Consistent opening hours on Wednesdays and Saturdays provide planning certainty. Between Jacklturm and the Town Parish Church, people meet early, exchange recipes, check the goods, and enjoy the calm, personal advice at the stalls.
Regional Diversity – Directly from the Producer
The stalls offer meat and sausage products, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables, delicacies, cheese, and baked goods. Additionally, there are flowers and arrangements for home and table. Seasonal products such as storage apples, winter vegetables, mountain cheese, or artisan-baked bread represent product quality and short supply chains – good for taste and the local economy.
Craftsmanship, Quality, Origin
Many vendors are traditional weekly market participants: family-run farms, artisanal butcheries and dairies, bakeries, and horticultural enterprises. Origin, processing, and maturation are explained transparently – a plus in trustworthiness for conscious shopping.
Opening Hours, Service, and Payment
The weekly market takes place on Wednesdays from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Town Square. Cash payment is common, and some stalls also accept card payment; please bring small change. Arriving early ensures the largest selection, and occasionally, last-minute sales offers appear just before the market ends.
Access, Parking, and Accessibility
The Town Square is centrally located. Free parking options are available, including at P3 Festplatz on Siegsdorfer Strasse (within walking distance to the center). In the city center, there are parking zones; at Karl-Theodor-Parkplatz, parking for electric vehicles is possible for up to three hours with a parking disc. The access to the Town Square is at ground level, and surrounding passages offer elevators.
Weather and Seasonal Tips
The market is an outdoor event. Warm clothing and a basket or cloth bags make shopping easier. Weather-related changes can occur in the offerings; sturdy packaging protects delicacies and baked goods on the way home.
Conclusion: Those who appreciate fresh food, honest craftsmanship, and short distances will find an authentic piece of urban culture at the Traunstein Weekly Market – ideal for weekly shopping with pleasure and a good conscience.
