Car boot sale and Flea Market of Fournels

The Car Boot Sale and Flea Market of As de Trèfle in Fournels

The As de Trèfle association organizes its annual car boot sale and flea market every August 14th in Fournels on the Place du Foirail. At €2 per linear meter, this summer event in the Margeride lozérienne brings together individuals and small second-hand dealers in an authentic village setting.

The Place du Foirail — the former site of the livestock market — is typical of rural French villages. Its name evokes the traditional fairs that were held there, where farmers and breeders came to buy and sell livestock and goods. Today, this square hosts the modern car boot sale, continuing the tradition of popular exchanges.
