Landpartie Engelskirchen

Landpartie Engelskirchen — Lifestyle in the Bergisches Land

From June 26th to 28th, 2026, the Landpartie Engelskirchen opens its doors to kick off the summer. Around 170 exhibitors will present crafts, fashion, jewelry, plants, garden and home decor ideas, as well as regional culinary specialties — in a unique setting: the park of Villa Braunswerth and the former Engels textile factory right on the Agger river.

A Place with History — Engels-Platz

The festival takes place at Engels-Platz 4 — an address with double historical significance. The Engels family (relatives of Friedrich Engels) operated a significant cotton mill here in the 19th century. Today, Villa Braunswerth and the former factory buildings form a protected industrial architecture ensemble, providing the characteristic backdrop for the Landpartie. The adjacent park offers shade under old trees — ideal for the outdoor stands of the fair.

Engelskirchen — Gateway to the Bergisches Land

The municipality of Engelskirchen (around 19,000 inhabitants) is located in the Oberbergischer Kreis (North Rhine-Westphalia). It is connected to the early industrial history of the Bergisches Land region via the Agger river and the historic industrial site LVR-Industriemuseum Engelskirchen. Today, the municipality is an important residential and commuter hub between Cologne and Wiehl, a popular excursion destination, and a meeting point for regional traditions.
