Halles Raspail, Food hall in central Toulon, France

Halles Raspail is a covered food market in the old centre of Toulon, with about twenty stands. The concrete building has a flat roof and a stepped parapet on the left wing, whose three tall windows are fitted with metal grilles and topped by green panels. Above the projecting entrance, a green panel with a gold crown reads "HALLES MUNICIPALES"; the doorway is closed by tall metal grilles and reached by a short flight of stairs.

The hall opened on 30 March 1929, built on the site of the Vincent-Raspail square by municipal engineer Henri Bonnet and architect Marius Bonnamy, with reinforced-concrete vaults over a basement. In 1956 it was named after Esther Poggio, a fruit seller at the hall shot in 1944. Closed in 2002, it reopened on 10 September 2021 after Biltoki's redevelopment.

The hall displays a memorial plaque honoring Esther Poggio, a local fruit vendor and resistance fighter executed during World War II. Her presence reminds visitors of the area's role in the city's wartime past.

The market is accessible through Q-Park Peiresc parking on rue de Lorgues or by public transportation serving central Toulon. Visit on weekday mornings when the vendors are most active and the crowd is lighter.

A rooftop section offers views over central Toulon and serves as a relaxed spot to enjoy drinks and food. From above, visitors can watch the market activity below while feeling removed from the busier streets.
