Traditions that shape the district
The Martinsmarkt is closely connected to the Meiderich community culture. The program ranges from festively illuminated rides to the Martins Parade and a family day with discounted prices. Especially the parade on Saturday with St. Martin on horseback, chapels, and the sharing of the cloak by the fire are moments that attract visitors year after year.
