About Toro Municipal Market

The market occupies a brick building with a triangular layout, directly in front of the Convent of the Mercy nuns. Trading five days a week rather than one makes it the town's everyday food shop, and the hall is wheelchair accessible throughout. Toro sits above the Duero at the centre of the DO Toro wine zone, and you can see all municipal markets in Toro on the city guide.
