In search of the special

With the start of the summer season, the Seefeld Tuesday Market awakens from its winter slumber! From June 4th, the village square in Seefeld transforms into a vibrant meeting point every Tuesday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. A must for all market fans and those who want to become one.

The Tuesday market is like a small world of its own. It is full of treasures, exquisite culinary delights, and artistically handcrafted items. Here you can find jewelry, fashion, health products, and everything else one might wish for in a market. Fresh fruits and vegetables, bread, cheese, sausage, and especially the friendly faces of the vendors invite you to linger. Anyone who has ever visited the Tuesday market knows about its very special charm. The warm atmosphere and the camaraderie among the vendors make the market a truly special place. "I love the family atmosphere here," says Monika Praxmarer, who comes up from Roppen every week and fondly refers to the Seefeld market as her second home.

The products at the market are almost exclusively handmade and come from the region. "Especially guests like to take home something original from their holiday destination – and it should be sustainable too," says Praxmarer, who always strikes the right note with her wooden products, crafted from materials sourced from her own garden.

Alois Haslwanter from Rasler is also proud of his local production: "We make almost everything ourselves, from smoking to distilling spirits. Even the apricots come from the old tree in our yard in Reith."

Ferdinand Schot has been selling his bee products at the market for years and currently manages the organization of this small "world." He speaks of the market's great importance to the region: "The market is very important for us local entrepreneurs and has been successfully built up over the years." Until September 24, there will be an opportunity each week to see for yourself.

Here's a tip to end: Whoever wants to experience the whole magic of the small market should take a moment to linger, watch the colorful hustle and bustle, or engage in a chat with the vendors.
