Saluhallen, Göteborg

Saluhallen is a glass and iron market hall in central Göteborg containing around forty specialized shops and restaurants. The vendors offer international foods, spices, coffee, cheese, and regional Swedish products.

The market hall was built between 1888 and 1889 and was Sweden's first major building constructed entirely from stone, iron, and glass. Its construction marked a turning point in the country's architectural history through this modern building technique.

The market displays food traditions from around the world, with vendors serving Asian noodles, Persian bread sandwiches, and local Swedish meats. People gather here not just to shop but to eat together and share meals.

The market hall sits at Kungstorget in the city center and is easy to find. Wheelchair access is limited in some areas, so visitors with mobility needs should plan ahead.

Inside the hall, Wine Mechanics Saluhallen operates as the Nordic region's first urban winery. The space merges wine production with a market bar where visitors can watch the winemaking process happen in real time.
