While Les Halles de Troyes is the daily meeting place for the people of Troyes, it also has a rich history to tell. Built in 1874 by architect Edmond Bailly, the Halles are an architectural feat. Come and discover its fascinating history and singular design through a guided tour!
Les Halles de Troyes was built in a dazzling Baltard style, where iron, cast iron and glass blend harmoniously. As early as 1900, when the town had a population of 38,000, this covered market, avant-garde for its time, ranked as one of the most spacious in France.
Spread over 2 floors, this 2,520 m² building symbolizes the emblematic architecture of 19th-century Troyes, a period of urban growth stimulated by the boom in the textile industry. Today, Les Halles stands as a city landmark. Here, you’ll discover the delights and local produce of the Aube region, in a friendly, lively atmosphere, especially at weekends.
The 45-minute guided tour will introduce you to the singularities of this living monument. For an optimal experience, the number of participants is limited to a maximum of 25 adults per group, and we recommend arriving at the meeting point 10 minutes before the tour begins.
