Ornans Professional Flea Market - Summer

The Ornans Professional Summer Flea Market, the Big Summer Rendezvous for Bargain Hunters in the Doubs

Every July, the town center of Ornans transforms for two days into a vast treasure market. Some 45 to 50 professional second-hand dealers and antique dealers set up their stalls in the pedestrian streets and squares of the historic heart of this Franche-Comté town, offering a rigorous selection of antique objects, regional furniture, period lighting, tableware, books, posters, and unusual decorative pieces.

Two Days of Bargain Hunting in the "Little Franche-Comté Venice"

The two-day format distinguishes this summer edition from the spring flea market, giving visitors more time to explore the stalls and exhibitors the opportunity to present a larger volume of items. Ornans, nicknamed the "Little Franche-Comté Venice" for its half-timbered houses suspended over the emerald waters of the Loue, provides an ideal setting for this event: the historic town center, the Gustave Courbet Museum, the medieval streets, and the river panoramas enhance the experience for visitors coming to hunt for treasures.

Professionals Selected for Quality

The Ornans professional flea market is reserved for specialized dealers, which guarantees the quality and authenticity of the items presented. You can find anything from Norman or regional furniture to curiosities, Art Deco lighting, antique tableware, rare books, and old toys and accessories. Exhibitors come from all over Bourgogne-Franche-Comté and neighboring regions.

A Flagship Summer Event in the Doubs

Combined with the Art & Crafts Days held at the end of July in Ornans, this flea market helps make the town a leading cultural and festive hub during the summer season. Visitors can combine their visit with a discovery of the Gustave Courbet Museum, a boat trip on the Loue, or a meal in one of the town's restaurants.
