Monday Mural


May 2019 - Dijon France


If the ironwork throughout the Les Halles covered market in Dijon, France, reminds you of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, there is good reason. Gustave Eiffel, a native son of Dijon, designed the market in the 19th century. One of France’s largest and best-known markets, Les Halles is open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.


This mural is opposite the market and was painted by Dominique Taraval in 1988.

  1. That's really neat! I love the "fer et verre" French architecture of the 19th century.
