Dubrovnik Farmers Market

Dubrovnik Farmers Market, located in Gundulić Square in the Old Town, is a lively spot offering seasonal vegetables, fresh fruits, homemade cheese and local dairy. Since 1870, it has been a place for women from nearby villages to sell their produce, with strict rules intended to maintain the quality of goods.

In autumn, stalls overflow with grapes from the surrounding countryside. With cafés and restaurants nearby, it’s a pleasant place to relax, people-watch and enjoy a taste of Dubrovnik’s local life.
