The Escaliers du Marché are a covered staircase that leads from the bottom of Rue Mercerie to Cathedral Square.
The year of their construction is not known, but they are mentioned in a document in the 13th century; Back then it was a very steep road, formed by long, spaced steps to make the climb easier. The city's market, held near the cathedral, gave them their name. They have been part of the Vaudois cultural heritage since 1900.
