Tips & Advice

  • Bring some cash along with your card, since many traders accept cards but not all of them do.
  • On Sundays, park in the Kaufland garage, which is open to market visitors; on Saturdays it's only for Kaufland shoppers.
  • Dress for the weather and skip the extra bags, as the market runs in rain or snow and there's no cloakroom.
  • Lock your bike at the racks in front of the clinic entrance, because bikes and e-scooters aren't allowed on the market grounds.
  • Take bus 220, 223 or 227 to the Paracelsus-Klinik Marl stop, which is just a few steps from the clinic park.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Children's day with family activities as part of the stage and music program
