Haguenau Spring Braderie

The great spring sidewalk sale of Haguenau traders

The Haguenau Spring Braderie is one of the most anticipated commercial events in the Bas-Rhin sub-prefecture. Organised by the CAP Alsace association, which brings together the town centre traders, this great day of open-air selling transforms the pedestrian streets into a vast open-air market. The shops in the historic centre, clothing, footwear, decoration, leather goods, jewellery and toys, bring out their promotional items in front of their windows and offer shoppers exceptional discounted prices. It is the ideal opportunity to renew one's spring wardrobe, find bargains and enjoy the reopening of terraces in a festive atmosphere.

Flower market and family activities

A highlight of this edition is a vast flower and plant market set up on Place de Neubourg. Horticulturists, nurserymen and amateur gardeners offer a wide selection of seasonal flowers, vegetable plants, aromatic herbs, rose bushes, perennials and shrubs, accompanied by the expert advice of passionate professionals. Families enjoy several free activities: a giant trampoline installed in the Cour de la Decapole delights children, while the pedestrian streets host musicians and street entertainment that set the tone for a joyful and friendly spring.

Haguenau, capital of northern Alsace

Haguenau, the fourth largest commune in Alsace by population, is a city with a rich imperial past whose historic centre preserves valuable heritage testimonies: the Saint-Georges church, the Knights' Tower, the Fishermen's Tower, the former chancellery and the Hop Hall. Surrounded by the vast Haguenau holy forest, one of the largest undivided forests in France, the town combines economic dynamism, commercial vitality and quality of life. The Spring Braderie is fully part of the agenda of great popular events that enliven the town centre throughout the year.
