This Expressionist building, the work of the architect Pedro Ispizua, is a must-visit in the capital of Bizkaia, both due to the traditional commercial importance of the produce market and for the architectural importance of its premises.
The market hall, divided into two floors with a total surface area of 10,000 square metres, had to be refurbished in 2010 due to structural problems. The refurbishment project was entrusted to Emilio Puertas Arquitectos, the architecture firm from Bilbao. As the result of this operation, the inside is lighter, which showcases the stunning original stained-glass windows, there is more space in and outside and the facilities have been modernised while ensuring a harmony between the traditional and the modern.
