Leester Holland-Markt Weyhe

Dutch Flair in Weyhe-Leeste

Weyhe-Leeste, located south of Bremen, hosts an authentic Dutch market once a year. Leesterstraße transforms into an international market mile where Dutch and German vendors present their goods. The geographical proximity to the Netherlands makes the market particularly authentic – many exhibitors travel directly from the Netherlands.

25 Exhibitors from the Netherlands

Of the approximately 40 stalls, about 25 are of Dutch origin. This clearly defines the market's character: not a small Dutch component, but a genuine market with predominantly Dutch vendors emerges in Leeste. The exhibitors bring their typical products: Poffertjes bakers, stroopwafel sellers, wooden clog makers, cheese vendors, flower stalls, and much more.

Specialties and Consumption

Anyone who hasn't yet tried Poffertjes – small, thick pancakes from the Netherlands – should try them at the Holland-Markt. Wooden clogs (Klompen) are among the most authentic Dutch souvenirs, and the fresh Gouda or Beemster from the Dutch cheese shop surpasses the quality of standard supermarket products. Thus, the market is an experience for the senses.

Sunday Outing for Families

The market is ideal as a Sunday outing for families. The atmosphere is international, the size manageable, and the culinary offerings make the day enjoyable.
