which is not anymore a market. The gallery was completed during the 1930s and actually started as a fully fledged food market. But soon, well groomed shops took up the space as homemakers changed their buying habits. They include a bookshop, a jewelry, a bureau-de-change, an optician and a hairdresser and beauty parlor together with a trio of eateries. As with other galleries, most tenants have been around for a long, long time.
Enter there, the Longicorne bookshop fills a very strategic space.
Side shop windows are a real institution in either Germany or Switzerland. In France, they look to be an handful left. The bookshop is keen to show it uses one of them.
Live postcards from the 1930s, as much of the architectural style has been preserved.
