The Market Hall in Rotterdam, is a residential and shopping complex located between the Hoogstraat, Binnenrotte and Blaak. Within the complex there are 228 apartments, nearly five thousand square meters of retail space, 1,600 m2 of catering space and a large indoor market.
The shape of the building is perhaps particularly, but the inside is truly amazing! Artist Arno Coenen created the greatest work of art in the Netherlands: the Horn of Plenty. With its area of 11,000m2 and bright colors, it is not surprising that it is also called the Sistine Chapel of Rotterdam.

Near where Rotterdam was founded in the year 1270, the recognizable arc shape of the Market Hall steadily took shape. During construction, large-scale excavations were done, and all kinds of medieval objects, from vases and tools to numerous cannonballs, were unearthed in the process. These objects can still be seen in the basement of the Market Hall.
