The Klatschmohn e.V. association from Seligenstadt only organizes this market, which is now known far beyond the region, only every two years. Only old crafts are shown to visitors. And at some stands, guests can also try their hand at it themselves. For example, when working on slate as a roofer.
You can, should and are allowed to watch my fingers and see how flexible the willows are when I show the rattle technique. And if you like, you can also purchase my basketry.
More than 80 trades are represented. Both in the outside area of the monastery and in the landscape museum itself. The first market day promised to be a complete success. Visitors literally flocked to the site, some of them coming from far away. And the weather certainly contributed to the fact that all seats were almost full shortly after the official opening at 11 a.m.
A colorful program rounds off the event. Juggling and artistry are shown, musicians parade around, and an old carousel keeps the children entertained. Of course, it is also ensured that no one dies of thirst or starvation. Specially brewed monastery beer is served and simple, yet delicious dishes pamper the palate.
The second day is about to begin and the guild and craft market will certainly be very well attended again.
