Place de l'Hotel de Ville Description

The Place de l'Hôtel de Ville in Aix, the central point of the Old Town, is adorned with a fountain (1755) around which the busy flower market is held every day. On the south side of the square stands the former Halle aux Grains (grain market), with a magnificent gable, built in 1759-61 and embellished with sculptures by Jean Pancrace Chastel. It now houses the post office.
