Halle Jean Moulin, Medieval market hall in Grenade, France

The structure spans 1800 square meters with thirty-six octagonal pink brick pillars and features a three-story timber frame topped by a bell tower.

Between 1582 and 1593, monks from Grand Selve Abbey constructed this hall using wood that dendrochronological studies date to 1293.

Since 1290, this hall has maintained its function as a marketplace, following specifications outlined in the town's founding charter.

The central hall hosts the traditional market every Saturday morning and remains accessible to visitors during regular opening hours.

The building contained a royal courtroom for judicial proceedings, while its 17th-century bell tower functioned as a watchtower.
