Last year I happened to find a wonderful craft show in Fussen on a Sunday. It had many local crafters, mostly with really beautiful pottery and yard sculptures. I will be in Fussen again on a Sunday and hope that it will be re-occurring. I haven't been able to find an online listing, only things that come up are for Christmas Markets.
Could anyone tell me what the correct term is for a craft fair in Germany or is anyone familiar with this particular craft show?
Many Thanks!

What time of year did you experience the specific craft fair in Fussen?

Maybe it was a part of the large town festival happening in August?
Hi Mona,
Last year I went to the craft fair on Sunday in mid July... I will be there again on July 5th. Thank you for your response and for the links, I am going to try and translate the pages. :)

Hi Mona,
I am actually going to be in Fussen on Sunday September 6. I read somewhere that there was a celebration for St. Mangs and a special wine that day/week. I see on the website calendar you provided that there is a music festival going on at St. Mangs abbey, but no mention of St. Mangs feastday. Know anything about this it had me intrigued ?
thanks
Kathy
Hi Lauren and Kathy,
I think it might be worth it to write a simple email to the tourism office to ask your questions about specific holidays and festivals they may be having in Fussen. I'd start out with a Guten Tag greeting and write my question briefly and clearly followed by a google translation of the same email. BTW, St Mang's death day was September 6 so they must have some kind of special service or celebration.
Hope this helps.
