A small Paris flea market
 

Hi

I know lots of Fodorites are heading to Paris, and so am I. I just ran across a note on a flea market while I was packing.

On the last Friday of every month, which will be the day after Thanksgiving for this month, there is a flea market in front of the Bourse.

I once got a very beautiful figurine there. I collect Blessed Mother and female saint images and the one I got at the Bourse flea market is very different from any I've seen.

Hope someone finds this useful. I'm thinking I will go to this, because unless the weather is gorgeous, I'm not going out to Clingnacourt.

Do go to Vanves.I gave up on Cligancourt years ago. ALso ther is an outside flea market at a
Aligre on week ends

I enjoyed the one on Rue President Wilson on a Sunday.
I'm sure it's there throughout the year with antiques and some art.

I probably wasn't clear that I'm not looking for flea markets. I just found an old note I had made on the Bourse market, and thought I would share it. I thought it might be an idea for others, since it is so central. It is a very small market.

I've made a note of Bourse flea market + others. Thanks for the info!

There are also true flea markets in various neighborhoods from time to time. Went to one on a Sunday morning last September in the 14th, rue d'Alesia@ rue de la Tombe Issoire. Look for posters for local 'vide grenier' sales.
