Markets Colmar

The Halmar market was built in 1865. Its location on the edge of the Lauch once allowed the garners to move their goods onto flat-bottom barks and unload them directly at the gates designed for this purpose. Today, this fine example of Second Empire architecture with its bricks and columns serves as a framework for a beautiful covered market where twenty exhibitors take their souls in a vast space dedicated as much to the sale of goods as to conviviality: butchers, stealth, baker, cheese, fish harvester, pastry maker, Italian caterer, Italian caterer, Alsatian specialties, farm products, Alsace wines, spirits… The covered market leads to a healthy return to rhythmic proximity to the seasons by local products of quality that blend with various flavors of the world. There is also the embarrassment of choice on site or to take away: Pretzels and sandwiches, bustling pie, good soups and vegetarian dishes, Tunisian or Vietnamese specialties… One of the establishments has a large terrace above the Lauch. Finally: every first Friday of the month, the covered market of Colmar hosts concerts (pop, rock, blues, rap, salsa, song…) as part of Stage Off.
