Markets, craftspeople and hidden courtyards
Aligre
Aligre centres on its covered and outdoor markets. Nearby streets, craft passages and the Coulée verte make it a good starting point for a morning outing.
Landmarks to locate
- Marché d'Aligre
- Marché Beauvau
- Rue de Cotte
- Coulée verte René-Dumont
Street names and landmark names keep their local names for use on maps.
Move from the market towards a green walk
Start with Place d’Aligre and Marché Beauvau, then follow shopping streets towards Faubourg Saint-Antoine. The Coulée verte can add a greener second part to the outing.
Check the market calendar
A market visit depends on its days and hours, which should be checked with the City. After closing, the neighbourhood remains interesting but loses some of its characteristic market activity.
