Golden Autumn, Full Baskets: The Dachau Autumn Market Invites You to the Old Town
On Sunday, October 11, 2026, the Dachau Old Town transforms into a lively fair with a flea market. Between Konrad-Adenauer-Straße, Augsburger Straße, and Pfarrstraße, a true market atmosphere emerges: regional diversity, direct encounters with producers, and a unique shopping experience in the open air. Admission is free.
Market Atmosphere with All Senses
Along the historic alleys, the scent of freshly roasted nuts, spices, and coffee specialties mixes with the colorful display of late-summer flowers and decorations. Craftsmanship is tangible: from turners to textile workshops. Visitors enjoy short distances, personal advice, and tips for preparing seasonal products.
Direct Marketers, Craftsmanship & Seasonal Goods
The Autumn Market is a classic fair: vendors and direct marketers present gourmet food, sweets, spices, wicker goods, household items, and textiles. The assortment changes based on approvals; seasonal products and handcrafted quality items are typical. Advice at the stand is included – ideal for trying new things and taking home regional treasures.
Flea Market at Pfarrplatz
Meanwhile, the flea market at Pfarrplatz invites you to browse. Here, well-preserved everyday items change owners – sustainably, affordably, and with a surprise effect. Set-up for vendors occurs according to city regulations; trading runs market-style from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.
Getting There, Parking & Accessibility
Due to its central location, arriving by S-Bahn S2 to Dachau Station is recommended, then continuing by bus or on foot to the upper town. Those coming by car can use parking garages like Altstadt P2 on Wieninger Straße (including disabled parking spaces, card payment). Arrive early due to road closures in the Old Town. Public paths are barrier-free; supporting information is provided by the city.
Opening Hours & Date
Sales start at 10:00 AM and end at 6:00 PM. The Autumn Market traditionally takes place on the second Sunday in October – in 2026 on October 11 – throughout the Old Town around Konrad-Adenauer-Straße, Augsburger Straße, and Pfarrstraße. The organizer is the city of Dachau, citizens' office.
Tips for Successful Shopping
Have cash for smaller stands; a fabric bag or basket makes transport easier. Arrive early for leisurely strolling; in the afternoon, the full culinary experience awaits. Plan for weatherproof clothing – the market is outdoors.
Conclusion: A day full of regional discoveries, personal advice, and craftsmanship – right in the Old Town. Those seeking authentic market life will experience it here first-hand.
