Baeza Food Market
A 1950s indoor market in Baeza's historic centre with 25 stalls selling fresh produce, meat, fish, bread and local olive oil. Open Monday to Saturday.
Baeza Food Market (Mercado de Abastos de Baeza) is the main indoor municipal market in Baeza, a UNESCO World Heritage city in Jaén province. The 1950s building on Calle San Francisco features a colonnaded facade with Tuscan columns and houses 25 stalls inside. It opens Monday to Saturday at 9am, closing at 3pm on Mondays and 2pm Tuesday through Saturday. Sundays it's closed.
What to buy
The stalls cover the daily essentials: fresh vegetables and fruit, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, bread, and olive oil pressed from olives grown in the surrounding Guadalquivir valley. It's a compact market, but one of the better spots in the city to pick up quality local produce. As one of the municipal markets in Baeza, it serves the local community day to day rather than catering to tourists, which keeps prices reasonable.
