Welcome to Madrid

Vallehermoso municipal market was built in 1930 and its architectural structure was novel in comparison to other shopping hubs of the era. Its colourful and traditional façade makes it impossible to miss; it appears, unmistakeably, on the corner of the streets Vallehermoso and Fernando el Católico, underscoring the importance of the market in the past as well as the present. Since September 2017 it boasts a new look as well as an innovative new offering: a permanent farmers’ market.

The market contains several stalls featuring a careful selection of quality produce at reasonable prices, including butchers, fish mongers, grocers, creameries, poulterers and bakeries as well as specialist shops offering Italian products, spices and tea, among other items.  

The market’s ground floor is occupied by the Farmers’ Gallery, made up of small artisan food businesses that offer environmentally-friendly foods at fair prices which are produced locally using traditional processes. These include fresh garden produce, eggs, meat, snails, milk, etc., as well as processed food: lunch meats and sausages, liqueurs, smoked foods, cheese, coffee, chocolate, croquettes, pies and pasties, among other offerings. The space also features a tasting area where food can be sampled on site.

In the market visitors can also enjoy culinary offerings from a variety of cultures (Argentinean, Japanese, Thai...) as well as a broad programme of leisure and entertainment activities.
