Brunnenmarkt

Vienna


Over 170 stalls fill the area between Thaliastrasse and Ottakringer Strasse every Saturday in what is Vienna’s largest street market. It’s an enthralling sprawl of Turkish grocers, fruit and vegetable producers and tack, which gradually and almost imperceptively flows into the happily hipster Yppenplatz market.

About a quarter of the traders are here on weekdays – far less busy but less of a buzz, too.
