"Description
It is a building with a longitudinal plan with three naves and a transversal one that divides the plan into two symmetrical halves. The fiber cement roofs are supported by pointed arch metal structures and by columns with modernist capitals. The exterior consists of two main façades made up of three semicircular arches, a large central one, which corresponds to the central nave, and two lateral ones.

The building has a strong modernist character in many of its elements.

History
The building was inaugurated on December 19, 1915. In October 2007, renovations were launched that meant that all market stalls had to move to the front square (Piazza Corsini) to a temporary building. After the completion of the works, in March 2017, the remodeling of the building was inaugurated."
