Where to park for the Luino market
Due to the growing popularity of the market and the recorded peaks of 6,000 summer weekly visits, the City of Luino has set up two designated areas where parking can be found for the Luino Market.
Lakeside Parking (recommended)
You can park for the Luino Market in the Lungolago area on Viale Dante Alighieri. This parking lot is recommended as it has plenty of spaces available, and also because of the fact that a pleasant walk along the lakeshore awaits you before you reach the market.

The History of the Luino Market
The history of the Luino market traces its origins back to 1535 with Giacomo Mandelli, owner of the fiefdom of Maccagno, who was given the concession for the weekly market. At that time the market was biweekly and was held every other week in the two towns.
For the official start of the Luino market, however, we have to wait a few years later, more precisely on September 5, 1541, the official date when the Luino weekly market was inaugurated thanks to a concession obtained by Count Rusca of Luino after a formal request to Emperor Charles V.
The fame gained by the Luino market in Switzerland (especially after World War II) stemmed mainly from two factors, the strong Swiss currency and the proximity to the country connected by an efficient railway infrastructure.
"The tourist's eye can admire, if on Wednesday, a complete and crowded market full of every variety of goods, and the spoken words that are heard [...] are [...] those of the Swiss, Belgians, Dutch and Germans."
Instead, so read a page in the 1959 Thurgeau Zeitung, demonstrating the fame the market also achieved abroad. Interestingly, even at that time Luino's Market Day was Wednesday.
There are currently more than 6,000 visits to the market during the summer season, a number that shows that the market is the most visited attraction in Luino.
