Looking for the Berlin Flea Market experience? On this page I have compiled a list of different more or less typical Berlin Flea Markets together with some tips, background information, opening hours and addresses. Happy Shopping!
Flea Market at Mauerpark
Parallel to the already popular Mauerpark, every Sunday one of the most popular Flea Markets has basically everything on offer, you would expect to find on a ‘typical’ Berlin Flea Market: from neighbors selling their used clothes to arts and crafts, memorabilia, sunglasses, records etc. And if you happen to be tired of walking the market, you may take a break and have a rest either in one of the cafés and bars (in Summer featuring Biergarten) or check out the Karaoke pit in Mauerpark.
Opening hours: Sundays
Location: near Bernauer Strasse, Prenzlauer Berg
How to get there:
- take the subway U2 to Eberswalder Strasse and walk towards Mauerpark for about 10 minutes
- take the Tram M10 and get off at Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark

Flea market on Arkonaplatz
Compared to other flea markets, the flea market on Arkonaplatz is rather manageable, but also quite fine and diverse. In addition to professional traders who set up their regular stalls every Sunday, there are also quite a large number of private stalls on Arkonaplatz – neighbors, local residents, friends who offer mostly clothes, books, records or other items and objects they would like to get rid of.
Arkonaplatz is barely a 5-minute walk from Mauerpark. This makes it easy to visit both flea markets on a cozy sunday afternoon.
Opening hours: Sundays – in summer 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., in winter 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Location: Arkonaplatz, Berlin Mitte
How to get there:
- take the U8 to Bernauer Straße subway station, then walk approx. 5-10 minutes to Arkonaplatz
- by streetcar M10 to subway station Bernauer Straße or to Wolliner Straße, then approx. 5-10 minutes on foot to Arkonaplatz
- by streetcar M1 or line 10 to Zionskirchplatz, then approx. 5-10 minutes on foot to Arkonaplatz
Flea Market “Trödelmarkt” at Straße des 17.Juni, Berlin-Charlottenburg
The Flea Market at Strasse des 17. Juni is Berlin’s oldest, and probably also still most popular flea market. You will mostly find antique objects, but also books, records and sun glasses etc. The flea market is located between Berlin’s Technical University campus (TU) and the Tiergarten park. So if the weather conditions are nice you can easily add some additional sightseeing activities nearby by either visiting the TU campus or take a walk in the park.
Opening hours: Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m.- 5 p.m.
How to get there by public transport: take the S-Bahn to S-Bahnhof Tiergarten
