Algemesí Municipal Market
A compact indoor market with 25 stalls in the heart of Algemesí, serving the local community with fresh citrus, produce, meat, fish, and Valencian staples Monday to Saturday.
Algemesí Municipal Market is a covered food market at Plaça del Mercat, 2, in the centre of Algemesí, Valencia. The market runs Monday to Saturday from 9am and is one of the municipal markets in Algemesí that serves the Ribera Alta farming community. With 25 stalls under one roof, it's a practical stop for fresh produce and Valencian pantry staples.
What to buy
The stalls cover the core of a Valencian kitchen: fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread from local bakeries. Algemesí sits at the heart of Valencia's citrus-growing region, and the produce stalls reflect that with locally grown oranges and seasonal fruit. It's a good place to pick up fresh ingredients at everyday prices.
