Marché de St-Girons

Top choice in The Pyrenees


In the village of St-Girons, a massive market spreads along the riverbank every Saturday throughout the year. If you're in the area, it's well worth fitting it into your itinerary. You'll find beautiful fruits and vegetables, bakery items, cheeses, smoked meats, freshly baked tarts, craft beers and more – nearly all of which is produced in the surrounding region.

Among the food stalls you'll find delicious galettes (savoury buckwheat crêpes), meaty sandwiches, pizzas, crêpes and Asian-style dumplings. Edibles aside, the market also has antiques, crafts, clothes, sheepskins, natural beauty products, baskets, books, records and plenty of other finds.
