Altlandsberg's Annual Scarecrow Market Returns This Saturday
Altlandsberg, a charming town in Brandenburg, hosts its annual Scarecrow Market this Saturday. The event, organized by 'Kultur verbindet Altlandsberg', transforms the historic city center into a vibrant hub of agriculture, art, and entertainment.
Market stalls, offering a variety of agricultural products, food, drinks, flowers, antiques, and books, line the streets. The lovingly restored houses and well-maintained gardens provide a picturesque backdrop for a leisurely stroll, often leading visitors to the historic city wall.
One of the market's unique attractions is the abundance of scarecrows. Made from straw and sometimes even featuring local residents, these figures add a touch of whimsy to the event. Some young Altlandsberg residents even dress up as scarecrows to participate in the fun.
The market activity sprawls across the historic city center, including the market square, castle square, and church square. Here, visitors can enjoy cultural performances and entertainment, and participate in interactive activities at the farms.
The Scarecrow Market in Altlandsberg is a delightful blend of tradition and creativity. It's an ideal day out for families, history enthusiasts, and food lovers alike. Bus services are available, with stops at Altlandsberg, Market, Buchholzer Allee, and Altlandsberg, Werneuchener Weg. Don't miss this annual event, held every first Saturday in September.
