The Easter market

The size and diversity of the choice of goods will get you in the mood for Easter. The Easter Market will take place from 23rd to 25th March, 2012 in the pedestrian zone between Marktstraße and Rheinstraße and around the Mauritiusplatz. The blend of entertainment, top-quality handcrafts and abundance of culinary temptations make the Easter Market a hit for the whole family. At some 90 stands everyone’s taste will find something to please, a colourful palette of crafts with products such as painted wooden eggs, Easter eggs, wine presents, herbs, oils, Easter dishes, candles, beekeeper products, jewellery, Easter cutlery, flowers, window pictures and much, much more. The colourful accompanying programme will include Easter bunnies, children’s games, marching bands, street theatre and much more.

The vehicles exhibited on the Schlossplatz as part of the Automobile Exhibition are real attention grabbers. Here, the motor vehicle guild presents the latest models and is at your disposal to answer questions on technical innovation. There will be also a shopping Sunday on March 25.

The popular wine sales promotion "Wein für Bildung – Bildung für Wein" (wine for education – education for wine) for the benefit of the "Daniel Meininger Scholarship" will also be held once again, during which surprise crates with six bottles of wine respectively are sold for Euro 20.
