Marché de Sault, Traditional market in Sault, France.
The Sault market is a weekly event that lines Rue Porte des Aires with around 50 stands selling fresh produce, regional goods, clothing, and household items. The stalls sit close together, creating a lively corridor where shoppers move from one vendor to the next.
The market was established in 1515 and has served the community for centuries as a central gathering point. During World War II, it functioned as an information hub for the local resistance movement.
Local producers gather here weekly to sell items rooted in the region, from fresh vegetables to lavender-based goods and traditional Provençal crafts. These goods reflect what the land around Sault naturally offers and what people here have made for generations.
The market operates in the morning and is best visited early, while vendor selections remain full. The street layout makes it easy to walk between stalls and browse what different sellers offer.
The market sits near Mont Ventoux and draws cyclists who pause here during their mountain rides. Many bike riders stop by for provisions before or after tackling the challenging climbs in the area.
