Municipal Markets in Alcala de Henares

Alcalá de Henares, the celebrated birthplace of Cervantes, just east of Madrid, maintains a strong tradition of municipal markets that serve both residents and the steady flow of visitors exploring this UNESCO World Heritage city.

The town's food markets reflect the practical needs of a university community mixed with traditional Castilian commerce.

Local vendors offer seasonal produce from the surrounding agricultural areas, alongside everyday essentials and regional specialities.

These indoor market halls provide an authentic glimpse into daily life in one of Spain's most historically significant towns, where academic tradition meets local food culture.
