Marché Saxe-Breteuil
The Saxe-Breteuil market takes place on Thursday and Saturday mornings on Avenue de Saxe, with the Eiffel Tower perfectly framed at the end of the vista. It is one of the few Paris markets with such a backdrop.
Farm produce, matured cheeses, cut flowers: the offer is quality-driven, aimed at shoppers from the Gros-Caillou and Invalides neighbourhoods. The market stays human-sized, making it pleasant even at peak hours.
Tip: come early for the market photo with the Eiffel Tower. Allow 30 minutes, then walk to the Champ-de-Mars in 10 minutes.
