Markets in Ponferrada

Markets in Ponferrada centre on the city's weekly open-air market, held twice a week in the heart of El Bierzo's capital. Ponferrada sits at the junction of the Sil and Boeza rivers, a stop on the Camino de Santiago that has drawn traders for centuries.
The street market runs on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 9:00 to 14:00, giving you two chances each week to browse stalls selling clothing, footwear, leather goods, handicrafts, and jewellery. The market is wheelchair accessible and pet friendly.
