Mercado do Livramento, Municipal market on Avenida Luísa Todi, Setubal, Portugal
Description
Mercado do Livramento is a market building with a large indoor space supported by cast iron columns and housing about 300 independent vendors. The space is filled with stalls where fresh fish, fruits, vegetables, and local products are sold each day.
History
The building was founded in 1876 and underwent major renovation in 1930 while keeping its historic structure intact. Since then it has remained a central commercial hub in the city and preserves the architecture from that period.
Culture
The walls display Portuguese ceramic tiles showing maritime scenes that reflect the deep connection between this city and its fishing heritage. These decorative tiles tell the story of daily life for local fishermen and shape the character of the space.
Practical
The best time to visit is early morning when vendors are setting up and the selection is largest. The building is easy to reach and has multiple entrances, making navigation straightforward.
Did you know?
Fishermen deliver their daily catch directly to the market, making it home to one of the largest fresh seafood selections under a single roof. Many vendors have maintained these relationships with fishermen for generations and know the best quality products.
