Flohmarkt, Flea market in Old Town district, Hanover, Germany.
Flohmarkt runs along Hohe Ufer street next to the Leine River, with sellers displaying antiques, vintage items, and collectibles on many stalls. The goods range from furniture and household goods to records, books, and smaller decorative pieces.
This market opened in 1967 and remains Germany's longest-running flea market at its original location. Its decades of operation show how much dealers and buyers have valued this place.
The market enforces strict rules on what dealers can sell here, keeping older items and rejecting factory-made goods from recent times. This approach shapes how the market feels and who comes to shop and trade.
The market runs every Saturday and welcomes all visitors for free. You will find the most stock and variety if you arrive early in the day.
The market sits near the colorful Nanas sculptures by Niki de Saint Phalle, adding another dimension to the spot. Visitors often combine their market visit with viewing these well-known artworks by the river.
