Viktualienmarkt

The Viktualienmarkt is the famous daily food market in the heart of the City of Munich and also the name of the square in the center of Munich. It has a long tradition going back to the beginning of the nineteenth century when it was an original farmers’ market. Today it is a very popular market for gourmets with a wide selection of products to choose from.

On an area covering 22.000 qm, 140 stalls and shops offer flowers, exotic fruit, game, poultry, spices, cheese, fish, juices etc. Nowhere else in Munich can you find a greater variety of fresh food and delicacies. All stalls and shops are open during the official opening hours (Monday to Saturday until 8 p.m.). There are special opening hours for flower shops, bakeries and restaurants.

But the Victuals Market is not only a place for buying and selling: The market also hosts a number of traditional and folkloric events such as colorful Fasching festivities and the masked dance of the market women on Shrove Tuesday.
