Description
After an intelligent and sensitive rehabilitation, of the modern building originally drawn by ARS-arquitectos, the Municipal Matosinhos Market is a happy example of the cohabitation of traditional ways of commerce, maintaining the prominence of the fresh produce market. The traditional market cohabitates with the creative industries housed here, under the impressive reinforced concrete parabolic dome. Once again the market is a place of meetings and strolls, a space to eat, work and learn.
