Vide-Grenier de Vacqueville

The Vide-Grenier de Vacqueville

Vacqueville, a small commune of about 200 inhabitants nestled in the Vosges foothills of Meurthe-et-Moselle, hosts its annual car boot sale every spring. Located halfway between Baccarat and Badonviller, the village offers a peaceful rural setting, ideal for a relaxed morning or day of treasure hunting.

A car boot sale in the heart of the village

The event unfolds in the center of Vacqueville, around rue de l'Église. Private sellers set up their stalls along the street, creating a pleasant treasure hunting route between the village's stone houses. You'll find the usual car boot sale classics: crockery, trinkets, toys, clothes, books, tools, and decorative items.

The authenticity of a rural car boot sale

Far from the hustle and bustle of large urban flea markets, the Vacqueville car boot sale charms with its authenticity. Here, you take the time to chat with sellers, bargain gently, and savor the friendly atmosphere of a Lorraine village. Prices are generally very reasonable, and it's not uncommon to find real treasures.

A commune with preserved heritage

Vacqueville, located in the Verdurette valley, benefits from a remarkable natural environment. A visit to the village during the car boot sale can be an opportunity to discover its church and traditional Lorraine houses, testaments to a preserved rural heritage.
