Targowisko Plac Bernardyński, Traditional marketplace in Stare Miasto, Poland.
Targowisko Plac Bernardyński is a marketplace in the old city district of Poznań offering fresh produce, flowers, meat, and everyday goods from around 28 designated stands. The space combines open-air stalls with some covered pavilions for vendors and shoppers.
The marketplace was relocated to its current location in 1945 from the Old Market Square. Originally serving as a trading point for hay and straw, it transformed into a produce and flower market over time.
The square serves as a daily meeting point for locals who gather to shop and chat with familiar vendors. The rhythm of the market follows the seasons and what is freshly available, shaping how people spend their mornings.
The marketplace opens early on weekday mornings and remains busy throughout the day. Shopping early gives you the best selection and a less crowded experience as the day progresses.
Several vendors have run their stands here for decades, selling produce their families have grown. This continuity makes the market a place where farming traditions remain alive and connected to the city.
