This unique location is home to more than 45 craftsmen who display their wares under the arcades of a renovated train viaduct. It was established in 1990 and has shops selling items, such as antique dolls and gilded picture frames. Even if you're not interested in buying art as such, you can come and admire the way this viaduct has been renovated. Pink bricks, wood, and large stained glass windows have been used to give this place a new life. Under every arch of this viaduct lies a different aspect of art and talent, which is waiting to be discovered. This is a great place to spend an afternoon and admire quality that's rare and precious.
