Markets in Badajoz

Badajoz maintains a robust market tradition that reflects its position as Extremadura's largest city and gateway to Portugal.

The provincial capital combines weekly street markets with established municipal facilities, creating a comprehensive network that serves both residents and visitors from across the border.

Local vendors offer regional specialities including Iberian ham, Torta del Casar cheese, and seasonal produce from the surrounding countryside.

The city's markets operate throughout the week, with different neighbourhoods hosting their own weekly gatherings while permanent covered spaces provide year-round shopping.

This dual system ensures fresh local products remain accessible, supporting the agricultural economy that defines much of western Spain.
