Antiquities, Flea Market and Booksellers of Taulignan

Taulignan, a medieval village for an exceptional market

Among the flea market destinations in the Drôme Provençale, Taulignan holds a prime spot. This fortified medieval village, whose name comes from the Latin Tolignanum, preserves its ramparts with its fourteen round towers, its winding alleys, and its limestone houses intact. This exceptional medieval setting serves as a backdrop for the monthly market of Antiquities, Flea Market and Booksellers.

A quality market from April to September

From the spring awakening of Provence to the last heat of summer, this monthly market offers enthusiasts a regular quality event. The exhibitors are selected for the diversity and authenticity of their offerings: antiques and character furniture, flea market items and old objects, second-hand books and old books, engravings, prints, postcards, and old documents.

Booksellers: a treasure for book lovers

The presence of booksellers gives this market a particularly appreciated literary dimension. Old and new books, old magazines, sheet music, comic books, maps, and atlases form treasures that lovers of reading and bibliophilia never tire of. In the medieval alleys of Taulignan, leafing through old works takes on a special flavor.

Taulignan, capital of silk and truffles

Taulignan is also known for its silk-producing history: the region was a major silk production center in the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, it is also the land of the black truffle from Tricastin, the precious tuber melanosporum. Visitors to the market can extend their discovery of the village and its heritage and gastronomic riches.
