City market

The City Market on Marktplatz offers fresh and seasonal goods.

Number 1 fresh goods market

For regional producers, the city’s most traditional and biggest fresh goods market is a matter close to their hearts. Located in front of the historic City Hall, the market is a colourful event not just on sunny days, offering an abundance of delicacies and specialities such as vegetables and fruits, flowers, sausages, mushrooms, honey, baked goods, tea and much more. A cup of coffee, a delicious lunch and cosy seating complete the market. The market, which can look back on a long tradition, is situated at the heart of an exclusive business area. Gourmets will find delicacies and specialities from the region, Switzerland and around the world.
