It was built in 1929 and, with its 10,000 square metres, is one of the largest covered markets in Europe.
This unique food market is located in the heart of the Old Town, next to the Bilbao estuary. It has an eclectic and monumental style with a markedly functional atmosphere. There are no columns inside, the spaces are completely open and the lighting is particularly special. The zenithal light enters through the roof and hits the floor, which is made of translucent material, flooding the whole market with natural light. The exterior of the La Ribera Market has a variety of Art Deco decoration which is a mix of glass, latticework, floral patterns and other decorative elements. And it stands out not only for its beautiful stained glass windows, but also for its excellent selection of fish and seafood.
