Street Markets in the Province of Madrid

In Madrid Province, street markets continue to shape local life, bringing together residents, traders and visitors in lively open-air settings.

The capital’s Rastro remains one of Spain’s best-known markets, filling the La Latina district every Sunday with antiques, books and second-hand goods. Throughout the week, neighbourhoods across Madrid host smaller street markets offering fruit, clothing and household items.

Beyond the city, towns such as Alcalá de Henares, Alcorcón, Móstoles and Aranjuez maintain strong weekly market traditions that attract people from surrounding areas.

These gatherings preserve a distinctly Castilian rhythm of commerce, where conversation, familiarity and routine continue to define market days.
