Where to Find Old Nice’s Best Markets: A Stroll Through the City’s Busiest Squares and Alleys
4. Place du Palais de Justice
Place du Palais de Justice is marked by La Tour de l'Horloge, the iconic clock tower that rises over the square, originally part of a convent. The square is anchored by the grand 19th-century Palais de Justice building, once the city’s main courthouse.
The square often hosts outdoor events, art displays, and weekend markets for visitors to find local crafts and foods. Nearby is the historic Chapelle de la Miséricorde, a stunning baroque church. The square is great for enjoying the local vibe with plenty of seating to relax.
