"Very small market. It opens at 6:00, but there's no point arriving before 6:30, as it's never open on time. The days of cheap weekly markets are long gone, and quality has its price. And if the produce is top-notch, you should pay fairly. The caraway roast at the Bayer farm shop is sensational, and the homemade brine is also very good! If you're in the area, I highly recommend it!"

"This market has fewer and fewer stalls, it's no longer a market, and in terms of gastronomy, nothing's happening either, which is a shame."
