Naschmarkt

Located at the Wienzeile over the Wien River, it is about 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) long.

[1] Nowadays, one can buy fresh fruit and vegetables from around the world, exotic herbs, cheese, baked goods such as bread, kaiser rolls, torte, meats, and seafood.

The atmosphere of the Naschmarkt is famous far beyond the borders of Vienna, and large numbers of tourists visit the market every year.

[citation needed] In 1780, the market was moved to the top of present-day Wiedner Hauptstraße.

[1] Milk was sold in buckets called "Asch" because they were made of ash trees.
