History and enjoyment – ​​The Hammer weekly market for adults

Fruits and vegetables, cheese and fish, baked goods, meat and sausages, flowers and plants, antipasti and nuts, honey and spices, clothing – and a cup of coffee, accompanied by a friendly chat: the weekly market around St. Paul's Church in Hamm offers all this. But has it always been this way? The market tradition is as old as the town itself, which was founded here 800 years ago. The buildings have changed, as have sometimes the goods on offer and even the rules governing sales. What has remained constant is the market's location in the heart of the town. On this walk, you'll discover little-known facts about the history of the market, trade, and the town. And you'll get to know today's offerings and their producers, and you can enjoy the products.
