Munich - Food Market Viktualienmarkt

The provision market which has been held in the square at the south end of the Old Town Hall since 1807 is a very characteristic feature of Munich life. In addition to numerous stalls selling fruit, vegetables, dairy produce, eggs, poultry, bread and cakes, there are also meat and fish halls. Particularly lively on Saturday mornings the Viktualienmarkt - much frequented, especially in the warmer months - and a gaily decorated maypole, a permanent fixture which adds further color to the scene.
