What is the Bergbauernmarkt?
The Bergbauernmarkt is a classic weekly market focusing on direct marketers from the Oberharz region. Unlike large supermarkets or anonymous shopping centers, it's about the direct relationship between producer and consumer: buyers can get to know their suppliers, ask questions about production, and form their own opinion about the origin of their food.
Weekly Date from May to October
The market takes place every Thursday from May to October 2026 — except on public holidays. In total, that's almost 25 market days over the summer season. The choice of Thursdays stems from the desire for a mid-week market that integrates well into daily life. The later opening hours from 5 PM to 9 PM allow working people to visit the market after work.
Grüne Meile on Bornhardtstraße
The market is held on the Grüne Meile — a section of Bornhardtstraße in the Zellerfeld district of the mining town Clausthal-Zellerfeld. Bornhardtstraße is closed to car traffic on market Thursdays from 3 PM to 10 PM. This closure is an important element of the market concept: it creates a quiet, safe, and atmospheric outdoor space where stalls, seating, and visitors can spread out.
Regional Direct Marketers from the Oberharz
At the Bergbauernmarkt, visitors will find a carefully selected range of direct marketers from the Oberharz and the surrounding area. Typical offerings include: fresh baked goods (bread, rolls, cakes), cheese (hard cheese, soft cheese, sheep's and goat's cheese), meat and sausage products (bratwurst, salami, ham), eggs, seasonal vegetables and fruit, honey, herbs and teas, juices and syrups, regional beer specialties, and spirits. The exact list of stalls varies throughout the season and depending on the time of year.
More Than Just a Market — A Social Meeting Point
Beyond the actual shopping, the Bergbauernmarkt is an important social meeting point in the Zellerfeld district. Visitors meet, chat over snacks and drinks, exchange news, and enjoy the relaxed Thursday evening atmosphere. This social function makes the market more than just a shopping venue — it's a place for encounters and lived neighborhood spirit.
Free Admission
Admission to the Bergbauernmarkt is free. Only the products are sold at the respective prevailing prices.
