Brocante Vide-Greniers de Sabres

The Sabres Flea Market: Treasure Hunting in the Heart of Grande Lande

Sabres, an emblematic commune of Haute Lande, is world-renowned for its Marquèze ecomuseum, a reconstructed 19th-century village accessible by a small train from the station. It is in this setting steeped in history and Landes traditions that the annual brocante and car boot sale of Sabres takes place.

A Mix of Flea Market and Car Boot Sale

The event combines professional and private flea market vendors, offering a diversity of items to satisfy all types of treasure hunters. Flea market enthusiasts will find distinctive pieces — antique furniture, collectible tableware, popular Landes folk art objects — while families will appreciate the classic car boot sale stalls with clothing, toys, books, and trinkets at low prices.

Sabres, Gateway to Grande Lande

Sabres is the starting point for discovering Grande Lande, this preserved territory in the heart of Europe's largest cultivated forest. The Marquèze ecomuseum retraces daily life in the Landes airiaux (traditional farmsteads) in the 19th century. The flea market is an opportunity to combine treasure hunting with culture, by visiting the museum before or after strolling among the stalls.

Practical Information

The brocante and car boot sale is held in Sabres, easily accessible from Mont-de-Marsan, Mimizan, and the A63 motorway exit. Admission is free. Food and drinks are available on site.

Grande Lande, Land of Traditions

Grande Lande is a territory steeped in history and traditions, where the spirit of the old airiaux can still be found. Flea markets here sometimes reveal objects bearing witness to this pastoral and forest past: old agricultural tools, local ceramics, rustic pine or oak furniture. Sabres, with its ecomuseum and the Marquèze little train station, is the ideal place to combine a day of authentic treasure hunting with the discovery of the living heritage of Haute Lande.
