Place Victor-Hugo

Place Victor-Hugo is a public square in the Saint-Georges district that connects multiple streets including Boulevard de Strasbourg and Rue Victor Hugo. The space features a market hall and is lined with shops and dining establishments.

The square was called Place du Marché-au-Bois from 1825 until 1886, when it was renamed to honor the French writer. A covered market building with concrete and metal construction was added in 1959.

The square serves as a gathering place where cafes and restaurants reflect how locals spend their days. Market vendors and visitors create a social rhythm that shapes the neighborhood's character.

The market on the square operates each morning except Mondays, selling fresh regional products. The surrounding streets provide easy access from different parts of the neighborhood.

The market hall uses concrete and metal structures that reflect mid-20th century building design. This construction represents how cities were reshaping public spaces during that period.
