Car boot sale of Saline

The Saline Car boot sale: treasure hunting in the Norman countryside

Every year in June, the Mont Joli stadium in Saline hosts its annual car boot sale. Organized by the Amicale des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Troarn, this outdoor event offers treasure hunters from the Caen plain and Pays d'Auge the chance to sift through the treasures from the region's attics in a relaxed, rural setting.

Saline, a discreet village in the Calvados countryside

Saline is a small rural commune in Calvados, located between Troarn and Dozulé, on the border between the Caen plain and the Pays d'Auge. This typical Norman village, with its pastures, apple trees, and half-timbered farmhouses, offers a bucolic setting for this flea market day. The Mont Joli stadium, a large grassy area on the edge of the village, is perfectly suited for hosting an outdoor car boot sale.

A friendly car boot sale

The Amicale des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Troarn organizes this car boot sale in the tradition of Norman village festivals. Exhibitor placement is quick and organized, allowing everyone to easily set up on the stadium grounds. The refreshment stand and on-site catering — homemade fries, sausages, merguez, and hamburgers — make this day a truly convivial rural experience.

Firefighters serving the community

The Amicale des Sapeurs-Pompiers de Troarn organizes this car boot sale as part of its fundraising activities. The funds raised support the social and festive activities of the association, which actively contributes to the life of the community of municipalities in this rural area of Calvados. Volunteer firefighters mobilize to offer residents a moment of relaxation and good cheer.
