The Monesterio Christmas Market is a seasonal weekly street market focused on handicrafts and clothing, giving it a more gift-oriented character than the midweek general market. It runs outdoors and is the more distinctive of the two markets for visitors looking for locally made goods.
Monesterio Wednesday Market Featured
Runs every Wednesday from 9am to 2pm at Plaza del Mercado, Monesterio. An outdoor market with no confirmed list of stalls or products yet.
Planning your visit
Both markets are outdoors, so checking local weather before visiting is worthwhile, particularly for the Christmas market during the winter months. Monesterio sits close to several other market towns in the region; if you are combining visits, Zafra and Llerena both have their own market days worth considering. For broader tourism information about the town, the Junta de Extremadura tourism portal covers the wider region.
How many markets are there in Monesterio?
Monesterio has 2 street markets: a weekly market held every Wednesday in Plaza del Mercado, and a seasonal Christmas market that runs on Fridays each November and December. Both are outdoor markets, and the Christmas market is the more distinctive of the two, focused on handicrafts and clothing rather than general weekly goods.
What day is the market in Monesterio?
Monesterio's main market runs every Wednesday from 9am to 2pm in Plaza del Mercado. A second market, the Monesterio Christmas Market, sets up on Fridays during November and December, selling handicrafts and clothing rather than the general goods found at the Wednesday market.
Is there a market in Monesterio on a Sunday?
No, neither of Monesterio's two markets trades on a Sunday. The weekly market runs on Wednesdays and the Christmas market runs on Fridays, so Sunday is the quietest day for market-goers in the town, with nothing scheduled at all.
