Since the second half of the 17th century Kuršu laukums served as the city's main market, but in 1910 the Pētertirgus pavilion was built next door and has remained Liepāja's central trading venue to this day. Inside you'll find stunning architecture and a hygienic market that has lost some of its character due to the pressures of the modern era. Outside you'll find flower and vegetable stalls as well as vendors selling local crafts and souvenirs.
