Traveler reviews
Dini Lubberts
★★★★★a year agoDe Nieuwe Stadsmarkt op de Oliemolenhof bij het Lokaal - 22 maart 2025. Erg geslaagd - leuke kleine ondernemers, van food (chutneys, ciders, mosterd soorten) tot kunst van keramiek, hout of papier en van alles daar tussen in (o.a. biologische planten van de Glinstertuin). In het najaar is er weer een Nieuwe Stadsmarkt.
