Place Saint-Marc, Historic marketplace and square in central Rouen, France
Place Saint-Marc features an open-air market space surrounded by traditional buildings and trees, creating a central gathering point in Rouen.
The square originated from a chapel where Cordeliers settled in 1228, later transforming into a marketplace after an 1832 renovation project.
The market square hosts regular events including food vendors, antique dealers, and musical performances during the Fête de la Musique.
The marketplace operates Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and Sunday from 6:00 AM to 1:30 PM.
A 531-space underground parking facility and bicycle sharing station support the square's function as a commercial center.
