Markets in the Province of Palencia
Castile and León, Spain · 31 markets across 13 cities
Palencia province has 31 markets spread across 13 towns, which is a modest count for a Castile and León province and means that in most of the province you are planning around one or two market days a week rather than picking from a daily choice. The city of Palencia accounts for six of them, more than anywhere else in the province. Saldaña has five and Cervera de Pisuerga four, so the north of the province is better served than its population would suggest.
Sunday is the busiest day here, with seven markets trading, and it is the day worth building a trip around. Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday each have six, so a midweek visit is not a wasted one. Monday is the quietest at three markets, and Thursday runs to four, Friday to five. The most common opening hours are 09:00 to 14:00, which means a market morning rather than a market day: arrive by eleven and you will see the stalls at their fullest, arrive at one and you will watch them packing up.
Days are confirmed for 23 of the 31 markets. The remaining eight have no day recorded, and they tend to be the smaller village markets, so it is worth checking each market's own page before travelling for one of those.
Palencia is one of nine provinces covered on the Castile and León region page, which is the place to compare it with its neighbours if you are travelling more widely.

Every week on MondayCan you go shopping at markets in Palencia province?
Yes, Palencia province has 31 markets across 13 towns, and at least three of them trade on any given day of the week. All 31 are street markets rather than covered halls, and the commonest hours are 09:00 to 14:00, so shopping here means a morning in the square rather than an afternoon errand.
Which day has the most markets in Palencia?
Sunday is the busiest market day in Palencia province, with seven of its 31 markets trading. Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday each have six, Friday five and Thursday four, and Monday is the quietest at three. Eight markets have no day recorded, so the Sunday figure is a floor rather than a ceiling.
Which town in Palencia has the most markets?
Palencia city has the most markets in the province, with six of the 31. Saldaña follows with five and Cervera de Pisuerga with four, so the north of the province is better served than its population would suggest. Between them those three towns account for 15 of the 31 markets, leaving the other ten towns with one or two apiece.
