Marché couvert

Édifice of ancient temple style of twenty-one columns, the covered market was built between August 1844 and March 1846. It is located on the old Cistern Square, where the "Suttane Gate" used to be, and where the goods entering the city were granted. It was declared a historical monument in 1993. It has recovered its original colors during its restoration in 2011. The market has been selected three times to represent Corsica in the competition organized by TF1 "The most beautiful market in France

The covered market is a building designed to accommodate merchants. Every day, traders gather here to sell fruit and vegetables, olive oil, cold meats and cheese. The covered market of L’Île-Rousse is a very important historical monument.
