The Central Sofia Market Hall (Bulgarian: Централни софийски хали, Tsentralni sofiyski hali), known popularly simply as The Market Hall (Халите, Halite) is a covered market in the centre of Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, located on Marie Louise Boulevard. It was opened in 1911 and is today an important trade centre in the city.
The construction of the building, which spreads over 3,200 m², began in 1909 after the design of architect Naum Torbov was selected in 1907, and took two years to complete.
Until the late 1940s the Sofia municipality let out about 170 shops and stalls in the Central Sofia Market Hall. The rents and the product quality were strictly regulated. The market hall building's interior was significantly altered after the 1950s and the market was closed in 1988 in order to be reconstructed, modernized and once again opened on Easter, 2000.

It is interesting to note that the Synagogue, located on the one side of the Market Hall, has purchased the "air" above the building. This means that the Market cannot be build higher than its current profile.
In the basement of the Hall are preserved and exhibit remains of the towers of the north gate of the Roman City of Sofia and remains of Roman city wall. Also there is exhibited remains of a Bath.

| Останки от баня, част от късноантична Сердика – ІV в. Разполагала е с различни по големина правоъгълни помещения, полукръгли басейни, водопроводни и отоплителни съоръжения (хипокауст). Водоснабдявана е от дълбок, каптиран, горещ минерален извор, намиращ се в центъра на града (същият съществува и ден днешен до Ulpia Serdica- Northeastern round tower – Североизточната кръгла кула до линията на трамвай №20). Твърде вероятно е да са използвани и студени планински води, докарвани по водопровод от Витоша за захранване на т.нар. „фригидариум”. (Фригидариум – Frigidarium В повече вили на римляните, лакониумът е бил пропускан като помещение, излизайки от него, респ. от калдаруима – когато лакониумът не е бил обособен, римлянинът задължително минавал през охлаждащата процедура на frigidarium-а. Фриджидариума също е бил обширен, и в него е разположен басейн със студена вода, наричан piscina. Кратко потапяне и охлаждане и денят е можело да продължи с вълшебни нотки и обновена психика и тяло.) | Bath – relics of a bath, part of the late ancient Serdika – 4th century A.D. It had different in size rectangular rooms, semi-oval pools, water pipeline and heating facilities (hypocaust). Water supply came from a deep ware caught hot mineral source, located at the city center (it continues to exist next to Ulpia Serdica- Northeastern round tower). It is quite possible that a pipeline supplied cold mountain ware for the so called Frigidarium from Vitosha Mountain. |
| Крепостна Стена Останки от крепостна стена на Сердика Средец. Запазен е вътрешния пояс, строен в края на ІІІ – началото на ІV в., по системата на т.нар. „смесен градеж” – редуващи се речни камъни и червени тухли. Стената разполага с кръгли и островърхи (триъгълни или питоъгълни) кули. Вероятно по времето на римската император Юстиниан І (527 – 565 г.) стената била обвита с външен тухлен пояс с дебелина до 1,80 м. На височина достигала до 12 м. Част от нея с два триъгълни бастиона, бележещи източната и порта, са открити под бул. Княз Ал. Дондуков. Отбранявала е града до ХІV в. | Fortress wall Relics of the Serdika – Sredetz Fortress wall Preserved is the inner fringe, constructed at the end of the 3rd – the beginning of the 4th Century A.D., according to the system of the so called “mixed construction” – alternatively laying river stones and red bricks. The wall had had oval and spiked (triangular and pentagonal) towers. Probably during the rule of the Roman Emperor Justinian І (527-565 A.D.) the wall had been covered with an outer fringe of bricks up to 1.80 m thick and up to 12 m high. It used to defend the town until the 14th Century A.D. |
