Wrocław Market Hall

Designed by Richard Plüddemann, it was built between 1906 and 1908[1] as the Breslauer Markthalle Nr 1, when the city was part of German Empire.

The Hall was renowned for its then-innovative application of reinforced concrete trusses, which was unique in Europe at the time.

The complex is situated by Piaskowa Street (Sandstraße), at the junction of Plac Nankiera (Ritterplatz) and Św.

Ducha Street (Heiligegeiststraße) close to Main Market Square and the historic Old Town.

The building was not severely damaged during World War II and continued to be used as originally intended shortly after, whereas the Kolejowa Hall was destroyed and its ruins demolished in 1973.
