Flea Market Old Post: Regional Diversity and Neighborhood at Berliner Platz

Dreescher Flea Market at the Old Post: Discover Neighborhood Treasures

On Sunday, September 13, 2026, Berliner Platz in Schwerin will become a vibrant meeting place for market-goers. The volunteer-organized Dreescher Flea Market by the citizens' initiative DreeschkindFlotte brings together regional diversity, market atmosphere, and a real shopping experience – with private vendors, fair prices, and plenty of interaction.

Regional Diversity Meets Neighborhood: This is What the Market Feels Like

Between the Old Post and the open square, lovingly arranged stalls await. Visitors can browse through well-preserved everyday items, handmade goods, books, and small rarities. Colorful blankets, the clinking of dishes, and quiet haggling characterize the market atmosphere – approachable, personal, without commercial frills.

Direct Marketers on a Small Scale: By Residents for Residents

The flea market emphasizes the original character of a weekly or neighborhood market: Private traders give items a second life. The citizens' initiative DreeschkindFlotte organizes the day entirely on a voluntary basis – every euro collected through stall donations strengthens projects in the Dreescher neighborhoods.

Practical Information for Your Market Visit

Start is at 9 AM at Berliner Platz 4. The area has been designed as a market square with a ramp for barrier-free access – ideal for strollers and wheelchairs. Tram line 1 stops at the Berliner Platz station; there are direct connections from the main station. Parking is available in the city area, but traveling by public transport is recommended.

Tips from the Market Professional

• Arrive early: The most sought-after finds are often out in the morning.
• Bring small cash: Many private vendors prefer cash payment.
• Act sustainably: Reuse instead of buying new – the flea market as a lived circular economy.

Conclusion

Visitors can expect an open, friendly flea market with real neighborhood culture, a sense of craftsmanship in small things, and many stories behind the finds. Experience regional diversity, browse at your leisure, and simultaneously support local projects.
