The tale of the Saint-Ouen Flea Market traces its roots to the rag-and-bone men of the late 19th century. Driven from the bustling city center during the grand cleanup project of the French capital, these resourceful individuals sought refuge in the welcoming streets of Saint-Ouen village. Here, amid the narrow alleys and charming corners, they laid the foundation for what would become a treasure trove of the past.
Guided by your knowledgeable licensed guide, the market unfolds its diverse wonders, catering to your specific interests.

Each market boasts its unique charm, offering an array of products, prices, and styles that cater to every taste.
