Shopping-Guide for Bayreuth – Information for ... - International Office

5. The weekly market in the Rotmainhalle
Twice a week, local producers come to Bayreuth to sell their products in the
somewhat rundown Rotmainhalle, which sits right next to the Romtain-Center. In fact,
the Rotmain Center was basically built around the Rotmainhalle, because its
destruction was heavily protested by locals when the first plans to build the shopping
mall were published.
In wintertime, the selection is smaller, but nevertheless you find local farmers selling
potatoes, meat, vegetables, flowers, fish, bread, cheese etc. etc. You might come
across an old lady only selling little flower bouquets she has gathered in her garden
or a beekeeper who still sells his quality product despite his old age.
In summer, the fruit stands between Rotmain Center and Rotmainhalle will attract
your attention rapidly. A fish farmer from the Franconian Switzerland, the region
between Bayreuth and Nürnberg, visits the market every Saturday and sells fresh
eel, trout, carp, pickerel and samlet.
The market takes place on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 6 – 12 am. It is a very
lively place where people from all walks of life meet to enjoy the colourful display of
local products.
