Visiting La Recova on a Sunday
A Sunday changes more than a weekday: fewer published hours, holiday notices and a different journey home. The week Google Maps showed (26 October to 1 November 2026) included a notice for Sunday 1 November, but that does not prove every Sunday is closed.

What the sources show for a Sunday
Google Maps showed “closed” with an All Saints’ Day notice for Sunday 1 November 2026. That notice was tied to a specific date, not to every Sunday.
Another regional source, with no visible update date, gives Saturday and Sunday 10:30–14:30 — a short weekend slot, not a permanent closure.
- Maps: “closed” only for Sunday 1 November 2026, with a holiday notice.
- SERNATUR (no visible date): Saturday and Sunday 10:30–14:30.
- June 2026 report: Saturday 10:30–14:30 (no Sunday mentioned).
None of these sources proves a rule for every Sunday of the year.
Decide by purpose, not by habit
A Sunday can be a good day for a relaxed walk through the centre, but it is not the day to assume a specific purchase will be available.
If you want a particular product or venue, Sunday requires more confirming than any other day.
- Looking around: possible within whatever slot you confirm.
- Buying something specific: confirm with the seller first.
- Eating: it depends on the kitchen, not the building.
Transport and the journey home on a Sunday
Transport services can run different timetables at weekends. This guide does not verify lines or frequencies.

No transport timetable and no number of open stalls is promised.
Before leaving on a Sunday
Confirm the exact date, check whether it falls on a public holiday and set a backup plan in case the market is closed or on a short slot.
