Les Puces de Saint-Ouen
The mother of all flea markets and the biggest market of antiques in the world. At the Puces de Saint-Ouen, there are 1,000 retailers dealing in fashion, artisanal products and second-hand clothes, and 2,500 retailers dealing in antiques and second-hand goods. Some shops in the streets of Paris have acquired a reputation for being specialists in the retro spirit.
This market roots come from after the war of 1870, when the scavengers started to install their shanties in the field between the houses and the fortifications of St-Ouen. More than a market, it's a real sightseeing point. It is the meeting point of different civilisations, cultures and trends and the atmosphere makes you feel like a real Parisian. Here you will find everything you want.
Come and visit this impressive and colourful market, classified for its atmosphere and ambience as “Conservation Area of the Architectural, Urban and Landscaping Heritage”!
