Johannismarkt at Schafhof: Arts and Crafts, Design and Summer Vibes in Freising
On June 20 and 21, 2026, the Schafhof in Freising will be transformed into a lively market for arts and crafts and design. In the idyllic garden area of the European Art Forum, around 50 selected artisans will showcase their unique pieces, small series, and masterpieces. Johannismarkt combines market atmosphere, regional diversity, and artisanal quality into a special shopping experience.
Craftsmanship with Character
Here, jewelry, ceramics, wood art, glass, textiles, leather, fashion, and paper art come together. The market focuses on originality, high-quality craftsmanship, and proximity to the producer. Those who enjoy discovering special pieces will find not an arbitrary selection but carefully chosen works from many trades.
Family-Friendly and Inspiring
The Johannismarkt offers more than just stalls and displays. Workshops, children's programs, and culinary specialties make the visit a relaxed outing for families, couples, and all who appreciate creative crafts. In the children's tent, at the forge, or with the turner, visitors can experience craftsmanship with all their senses.
Exhibition, Enjoyment, and Summer Ambiance
Alongside the market, the exhibition VerSpielT / Focus Europe VII will be open at the Schafhof. This creates a harmonious stroll between art, design, and garden ambiance. Food trucks and culinary offerings complete the market visit, creating a delightful setting for a long summer day in Freising.

For those arriving by car, there are various parking options available within the city limits of Freising.
