The oldest covered food market in Paris, founded in 1615 in the Marais district under King Louis XIII. It owes its evocative name to a nearby 16th-century orphanage whose children wore red clothing symbolising charity. Today, the bustling market stalls are a renowned foodie destination, offering artisan cheeses alongside freshly cooked Moroccan tagines, Lebanese sandwiches, Japanese bento boxes, and traditional French crepes.
