The Notre-Dame market has been the commercial heart of Versailles since the 17th century: four covered pavilions, the halles, surrounded by open-air stalls, the carrés, and streets of shops, cheese shops and restaurants around them.
Opening hours
The halles are open Tuesday to Saturday from 7:00 to 19:30 and on Sunday from 7:00 to 14:00. The open-air stalls of the Carrés Notre-Dame are set up on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday mornings, from 7:00 to 14:00. Sunday morning is when it is liveliest.
What to do
Buy your picnic for the gardens, have a coffee in the square and take a turn around the church of Notre-Dame and Rue de la Paroisse. In December, the church holds a Christmas market.
Tips
- Picnic for the park In the park you can eat on the grass; at the market you have everything you need.
