Tips & Advice
- Take the bus if you can, because the Barendorf stop is right at the entrance and parking at the village itself is limited.
- If you drive, go straight to the free parking at Schlüter Systems or the Freie evangelische Gemeinde, because the village car park closes once all its spaces are taken.
- Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes, because the grounds of the historic factory village are laid with cobblestones and loose gravel.
- Leave time to look into the open artists' studios, the Needle Museum and the hairpin factory, which are all open during the market.
- Makers hoping for a stall should send photos by the end of February, since only original handmade or regional products are accepted.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I buy at the market?
The huts and half-timbered houses are filled with traditional craftsmanship, fine handiwork, contemporary design pieces and art. The museum's regional partners and charities also have stalls. The organisers want original, one-of-a-kind products, so there's no plain resale goods.
Is there anything to see besides the stalls?
Yes. The studios of the artists who live in Barendorf are open during the market. So are the Needle Museum (Nadelmuseum) and the hairpin factory (Haarnadelfabrik).
What food and drink is there?
Local restaurateurs, farmers and Iserlohn service clubs run the food and drink. There are vegetarian and non-alcoholic options.
What's the best way to get there?
The bus is recommended. The 'Barendorf' stop is right at the entrance and is served by Stadtbus 222, Regionalbus 22, Regio Bus R 30 and Regionalbus 1. If you drive, use the free parking at the Schlüter Systems garage or the Freie evangelische Gemeinde.
How can I get a stall at the market?
Makers with handmade or regional products, or with historic craft skills to demonstrate, can apply by the end of February each year. Email museum@iserlohn.de or write to the Stadtmuseum Iserlohn, with photos of your products or past stalls and your contact details. The Stadtmuseum team decides who takes part.
