About

A restored 1882 iron market that fills a whole Eixample block under a 28-meter octagonal dome. Inside are fresh-food stalls, a ring of clothing and bric-a-brac stands, and a basement section of the old Sant Antoni city wall. Every Sunday morning around a hundred stalls take over the perimeter selling secondhand books, comics, stickers, trading cards, postcards, and vintage video games.
