Spring Dippemess

At that time, the "Maamess", as it was still called at the time due to its location on the Main, was a medieval sales market for household goods. Potters from the Westerwald, Kannebäckerland and Urberach sold their products here, especially their ceramic bowls and containers, known as "Dippe" in Frankfurt, which then also gave the event its name. Over time, these household fairs were joined by more and more fairground stalls and popular entertainment.
