Umbrisch-provenzalischer Markt

In the organizer's words:

At last, 'dolce vita' and 'savoir vivre' are back in the streets of Tübingen. For five days, there is a lively market in the old town when traders from the twin towns of Aix-en-Provence and Perugia come to visit. Every year, the French and Italian guests transform the city into a Mediterranean market village with a colorful abundance of culinary specialties and handicraft products. The colorful stalls attract over 100,000 visitors year after year.

You can taste everything that Umbrian-Provençal cuisine has to offer and enchant the nose and palate: lavender, pâtés, liqueurs, wines, hams, olive purées, spices, herbs, sheep's and goat's cheese, bouillabaisse, mussels, jams, honey and truffles. Anyone who has never tasted the famous calissons from Aix, which according to legend were invented in 1473 for the second marriage of the French King René, will never forget how they taste after visiting the market.

Big children's festival with children's flea market, face painting, handicrafts, dancing, skateboard workshop and much more on Saturday 10 am - 4 pm in the inner courtyard of the Bürgerheim, Schmiedtorstraße.
