It's the weekly rendezvous for all lovers of literature and collectibles. Every weekend since 1987, the Antiquarian and Second-Hand Book Market has been held in the halls of the Parc Georges Brassens, in the 15th arrondissement. A dozen booksellers await you from 9am to 6pm at their stalls loaded with hundreds of books. Paperbacks, paperbacks, albums, comics, art books- there's something for everyone, and from every era.
Yes, like the bouquinistes on the quays of the Seine, the principle of this market is above all to bargain for precious objects. And you'll be well served! Antiquarian book enthusiasts are present, and their collections are brimming with treasures. Most of the books are at bargain prices, between €2 and €4, but of course, prices can go very, very high when it comes to rarities.
Nevertheless, it's easy to walk away with a full bag for less than €20- just shop around! It's worth noting that books aren't the only stars of this market, as we also found old magazines that are impossible to find today, as well as CDs, DVDs, vinyl and children's toys. Take your pick!
