Plan Cabanes, Public square in Figuerolles district, Montpellier, France
The triangular shaped Plan Cabanes square extends 100 meters in length and 50 meters in width between Gambetta Avenue and Courreau Street.
The square gained municipal approval in 1924 to host a firewood market, which gradually evolved into a diverse commercial space over eight decades.
Local residents gather at the square's market six days per week, purchasing fresh produce, textiles, and engaging in neighborhood social interactions.
The square connects to Montpellier's public transport network through line 3 of the tramway system, with a dedicated stop established in 2012.
Notre-Dame de la Merci high school stands at the northern edge of the square, adding an educational dimension to this commercial space.
