Teguise Market


Teguise Market

Teguise is the old capital of Lanzarote and the venue of the Sunday market. Also known as “la Villa” the town has a unique charm. Many of its buildings are dating back to the 17th century displaying the beautiful carvings in wood and stone around the doors and windows.

Every Sunday, locals and tourists alike visit the town to try their skills at bartering. Many different stalls line the old, cobbled streets with all sorts of goods including clothes, shoes, ceramics, handbags, paintings, toys and many other crafts. Don’t forget to haggle.

All of the shops and bars open too. In the centre of the town, the church square, two groups of musicians entertain everyone throughout the morning with panpipe music and folk dancing.
