Coimbra Antique Fair
Here you can find a bit of everything: books, antique clocks, bells, statues, stamps, old coins, postcards. You need to be careful not to buy a pig in a poke. Not everything for sale is an antique. Often, they are just old items. However, for those who know what they want and, above all, know what they are looking for, real bargains can be found.
Location, Date and Time
The Coimbra antique fair takes place on the last Saturday of each month, from 9:00 AM until around 3:00 PM, at the Praça do Comércio (Commerce Square), in front of the Igreja de São Tiago (Church of Saint James).
Commentary
From 9:00 in the morning, you can already see the vendors organizing their items on cloths spread on the ground or on tables brought especially to facilitate visitors' contact with the displayed objects.
