The old market arbours, with their arched construction, form an attractive setting for the Giessen weekly market. It takes place on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can find more information here: giessen.de/Erleben/Einkaufen/Wochenmarkt.

After their destruction in December 1944, the market arbors were rebuilt as true to the original as possible. The fire brigade had already found a new place to store their equipment. There was no need to rebuild the old house. Today there is a residential and commercial building on this site. In the Oberhessisches Museum you can see a model of the city. Here you can see what Giessen looked like before 1944.

The weekly market in Giessen still takes place here today. Sales rooms are integrated in the arbors.
