The Markatal is the first covered market in the Netherlands, opened in 2014. It is a particular structure that houses over 100 fresh produce counters, as well as grocery stores, several restaurants and private apartments.
The main facade, made of glass, allows you to look inside and admire a great work of art on the ceiling: the mural painting of Cornucopia. This large and colourful creation is also called "The Sistine Chapel of Rotterdam". The new Markthal stands out for the originality of its shape, which generates " a lively space open to sharing " as the architect winy Maas said.
