Flea market of the patronal festival in the Haut-Jura resort
The flea market and car boot sale of the APE of Bois-d'Amont is held every year in September during the village's patronal festival, in the heart of the Haut-Jura, on the Swiss border. Organized by parents of students, this family event allows for treasure hunting in an exceptional mountain setting, at over 1000 meters altitude, for the benefit of school projects.
Every first weekend of September, on the occasion of the patronal festival, the village of Bois-d'Amont hosts a flea market and car boot sale organized by the Association of Parents of Students (APE). Located at 1050 meters altitude in the Haut-Jura, a stone's throw from the Swiss border, the village offers an exceptional natural setting for this day of treasure hunting.
Exhibitors, mainly individuals from the Haut-Jura, offer a variety of items: mountain clothing, ski equipment, toys, tableware, books, and trinkets. The atmosphere is that of a mountain village flea market, friendly and authentic, where conversations flow between locals and visitors.
The profits from the event are entirely donated to the school activities of the Bois-d'Amont school. The APE thus finances educational outings, shows, and teaching materials for the village children. It is a moment of community solidarity that mobilizes parents and residents.
Bois-d'Amont is a winter and summer sports resort in the Haut-Jura, famous for its cross-country skiing trails of the Transjurassienne and its Musée de la Boissellerie. The village, nestled at the bottom of the Orbe valley, offers splendid panoramas of spruce forests and high-altitude pastures. The September flea market marks the end of the summer season and the beginning of the mountain autumn.
The APE of Bois-d'Amont flea market returns in September 2026 during the patronal festival of the Haut-Jura village.
