 A fire tore through Paris' oldest ​covered food market in ‌the early hours of Monday, authorities said, destroying the ​historic site popular ​with tourists.

Ariel Weil, the mayor ⁠of Central Paris, ​said the Marché des ​Enfants Rouges had been "totally destroyed".

The market was established in 1615 ​during the reign of ​Louis XIII in the upscale ‌Marais ⁠district. It took its name from a nearby orphanage whose children wore ​red clothing.

The ​fire ⁠broke out at about 3 a.m. (0100 ​GMT), French media ​reported. ⁠Firefighters were still tamping down the smouldering ruins ⁠several ​hours later.

The cause ​of the fire is not ​yet known.
