The covered market

The primitive location of the halls is not what we know today, for in the first mention of November 1258, in a donation of the King to the monastery of Saint Ouen, it is made "gift of a manor between halls and ditches"

They were rebuilt several times:

In 1500, Pierre Baillet obtained "release for their reconstruction after their destruction by fire.”

In 1598, Charlotte de Mouchy, sought and obtained reparation from the King after their destruction with some of the houses by the troops of Henry IV in 1589 during the siege of Rouen.

In November 1631 "the fire burned the Halle de Cailly with the house of Louis Bruslin and the house of Gril. The fire started in the house of the waxworker who lost everything, his furniture and the Halle was all wasted, which was a great loss" as reported by Abbot Legrain, parish priest of Collemare.

They were then rebuilt in another place (the one we have known) around 1662 by M. de Caumartin, Lord of Cailly. In an admission to the King they are described as having two wings, one "along the street with a room to hold the plaids and justice of my Marquisat and the excess attic 100 feet long" and the other 55 feet long" for the butchers ‘ stalls with a large stable.”

In 1908, the party committee set up the attic, at its own expense, and converted it into a dance floor.

The market was held there every Saturday morning.

They were permanently destroyed in the 1960s and replaced by the newly renovated multipurpose room. Only a few half-timbers have remained as a trace of this building.
