Tours & Activities in Sallent
Street markets in Sallent
The Sallent Weekly Market is the larger of the two, with around 25 stalls setting up each Sunday morning at Plaça Catalunya. Shoppers come for fresh fruit, vegetables, bread and pastries, flowers and plants, and clothing from local and regional traders. It is the main weekly market fixture in this part of Bages county and a good complement to the markets in nearby Manresa.
The Sallent Ecological Market, known as Som Terra, runs outdoors on a weekly basis with 15 stalls focused on organic produce, fresh fruit and vegetables, cheese and dairy, and bread and pastries. It is one of the few dedicated eco markets in this part of central Catalonia, making it worth a specific trip for shoppers prioritising locally certified goods. More information on local market activities can be found on the Sallent town hall website.
