Open Monday to Saturday, it features over 70 stalls selling fresh produce, spices, meats, baked goods, and textiles at affordable prices2. The market is known for its vibrant atmosphere, shaped by the diverse backgrounds of its vendors and customers, and the unmistakable “Favoritner Schmäh”—a local Viennese charm. On weekends, the farmers’ section adds regional products from Austrian farms, drawing crowds with its authenticity and value.
