Carranque Market

Municipal Market Malaga, Malaga, Andalusia
Updated 15 November 2025 Verified information

A covered municipal market in the Cruz de Humilladero district of Malaga, with 33 stalls selling fresh produce, meat, fish, and local specialities Monday to Saturday.

Carranque Market is a neighbourhood indoor market in the Cruz de Humilladero district of Malaga, open to the public since 1958. With 33 stalls spread across a spacious building, it opens Monday to Saturday from 9am to 2pm. The market originally held up to 70 stalls, but a 2009 renovation reduced the count to 33, giving each trader more room and modernising the layout.

What to buy

You'll find fresh fruit and vegetables, fish and seafood, meat and poultry, cheese and dairy, bread, local honey, and olive oil across the stalls. Prepared foods are also available if you want something ready to eat. The market has a food court inside, so you can grab a coffee or a quick bite while you shop. It's a quieter, more local alternative to the municipal markets in Malaga closer to the city centre.

Where to stay in Malaga

Staying in the city centre puts you within easy reach of Carranque Market and the rest of Málaga's best spots. The City Centre is your most practical base, and the Room Mate Valeria is a solid, well-located option close to the action.

If you prefer something with more character, the Soho neighbourhood sits just south of the centre and has plenty of good accommodation, cafés, and galleries to keep you busy before and after your market visit.
