Central Market, Sabadell

The Central Market of Sabadell, located in Catalonia, Spain, is an architectural gem designed by Josep Renom i Costa between 1927 and 1930. This striking building reflects the monumental style of the era, bridging the end of Miguel Primo de Rivera's dictatorship and the onset of the Second Spanish Republic. Originally serving as a bustling market space for centuries, it has historical roots dating back to a medieval market referenced in 1064. The market features an irregular quadrilateral floor plan and was once home to an ice factory. After undergoing renovations in 2004, it continues to be a vital public space, attracting tradesmen and visitors alike, making it a must-see for tourists and researchers interested in local history and architecture.
