The Martinimarkt Nottuln 2026 runs from 6 to 9 November in the historic town centre. For travel to the event, the municipality of Nottuln and Regionalverkehr Münsterland GmbH have announced additional bus services. At the same time, a central bus stop will not be served during the event. If you are travelling to the market, you should check the best connection and your return journey in advance.
On Sunday, 8 November, service on route C85 between Nottuln and Appelhülsen station will be increased. According to the municipality, buses will run hourly from midday until the evening. The last bus from the “Historischer Ortskern” stop towards Appelhülsen leaves at 22:06. This is particularly useful for visitors spending Sunday at the market and then wishing to continue their journey by train. On Saturday, 7 November, the regular timetable applies. The last C85 bus from “Historischer Ortskern” towards Appelhülsen then leaves at 20:06. A full-size bus will operate on the route over the weekend.
From 6 to and including 9 November, the NachtBus N8 and BürgerBus routes B31 and B32 cannot serve the “Nottuln, Rathaus” stop because of Martinimarkt. The municipality names “Historischer Ortskern” as the replacement stop. Please note that this information specifically concerns the routes mentioned. The municipality also lists the SchnellBus S60 between Münster and Nottuln, as well as NachtBus N8, as options for travelling without your own car. Check the current timetable for your journey before setting off, especially if you are returning late.
Alongside the bus service, the traditional Martinimarkt remains a day-trip destination for families and funfair fans. The event combines rides, market stalls and activities in the historic town centre. 2026 the funfair began for the first time as early as Friday evening with a warm-up. The main market runs from Saturday to Monday. For exact opening times, the venue and the rest of the programme, you can find all the details on our Martinimarkt Nottuln event page 2026. The additional bus services apply to the Sunday of this edition and should not be assumed to apply in future years.
Especially during large events in the town centre, routes to stops and individual services may change. It is therefore worth checking the official notice from the Municipality of Nottuln. It contains the confirmed details of the additional services and the replacement stop. The notice does not include a complete overview of all routes and possible connections. So allow a little extra time if you are relying on a particular return journey. Source: press release from the Municipality of Nottuln dated 05.11.2026 (Link).
