The Innsbruck Market, also known as the Market Hall (Markthalle Innsbruck), is the central indoor market in the historic center of Innsbruck, which combines traditional farming and craft markets with permanent food departments in one building.
The first farmer's market in Innsbruck is documented in 1460. Then the market was held every Monday in front of the"Golden roof". In 1679, the weekly market was moved to the limit of the street Innrain (Innrain) and was held on Tuesdays and Saturdays in accordance with the new market order with 1791. Since 1880 the market was allowed to spend every day, and it was installed for fruit and vegetables the main part of the street Innrain, where, in the end, and was built today's "Old Market hall".
3 Oct 1960 opened the "new" market hall, built of reinforced concrete and designed by architect Willie Stigler. This hall was to be a continuation of the old market hall and harmoniously blended into the architecture of Innsbruck.
