All the colour of the best daily French Food Market in Aix-en-Provence
Markets in Provence and Cote d'Azur · TastePlace Richelme is THE place for market lovers in Aix-en-Provence. There is a market every single day of the week in Place Richelme and a much bigger market including antiques, silverware, spices, linens, soaps and flowers on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday in Place des Prêcheurs and Place de la Madeleine.
