Of course there is some parking, but there is no need for a dedicated car park for this market. Many of these people will have come on foot or by public transport, that isn't a lie at all. Public transport in Germany isn't exactly a model to follow imo (I was surprised, I expected it to be down to an art tbh), but like most of Europe the cities are walkable and at least have some form of public transport system.

The Nazis were so fucking good at propaganda. People still believe the "Germans are so efficient and good at everything" today, it's wild

Most people visit this market (Striezelmarkt in Dresden, Germany) using public transport, yes, but the market does have a "dedicated" car park.

In fact, this market is built directly on top of a giant underground car park.
