Market · Carlstadt
Carlsplatz Market
Carlsplatz in the elegant Carlstadt is the oldest and best-loved market in Düsseldorf. On the covered square crowd around 60 stalls where traders offer fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, meat, cheese, flowers and all manner of delicacies. Between the market stalls, small snack bars, delicatessens and eateries invite you to feast and linger. Carlsplatz is far more than a place to shop: it is a lively meeting point where Düsseldorf's culture of enjoyment combines with the flair of a southern market right in the middle of the city.
The oldest market in the city
Carlsplatz has a long tradition as a marketplace and is regarded as the oldest market still operating in Düsseldorf. For generations the residents of the Carlstadt stocked up on fresh produce here. To this day the square is firmly anchored in the city's culture and a piece of living history in the middle of one of Düsseldorf's most distinguished quarters.
Fine food & enjoyment
At around 60 stalls, one culinary offering follows the next: fresh fruit and vegetables, fish and meat, cheese, flowers, spices and fine delicacies. In between, small snack bars and delicatessens tempt you to taste, from oysters to currywurst. This mix of market bustle and dining makes Carlsplatz a land of plenty for everyone who loves good food and relaxed strolling.
Tips for your visit
The market is at its liveliest in the morning and over the lunch period, when locals and gourmets meet between the stalls. If you like, buy a few delicacies and eat them right away at one of the standing tables. From here it is only a short walk into the Old Town or to the Königsallee, so a market visit pairs well with browsing and an Altbier.
