About Ostermarkt Gersbach

The Ostermarkt der Landfrauen Gersbach is one of the most charming pre-Easter events in the Pirmasens city area. On March 14 and 15, 2026, the multi-purpose hall in Pirmasens-Gersbach will be transformed into a market with 41 hobby artists offering Easter decorations, handicrafts, jams, and honey. The Landfrauen (rural women's association) organize the market as a contribution to the village community, complemented by culinary specialties such as the typical Palatinate Hoorische with bacon sauce.

A Pre-Easter Event with Gersbach Character

The Ostermarkt der Landfrauen Gersbach is an example of the vibrant club activities of the Landfrauen associations in the region. In the Gersbach district of Pirmasens, the Landfrauen organize a market every March, which attracts a loyal regular clientele with its family atmosphere and quality offerings. The multi-purpose hall on Kindergartenstraße is the central venue.

41 Hobby Artists, Diverse Offerings

At the stalls, 41 hobby artists present their works. The spectrum ranges from Easter decorations, handicrafts, and creative gift items to homemade jams and honey from the region. This diversity makes the market a suitable place to find Easter gifts and decorations for your own home – away from industrially produced seasonal goods.

Culinary Offerings

The Landfrauen also take care of the physical well-being. In addition to coffee and cake, which are naturally part of every Landfrauen repertoire, hearty Palatinate specialties are also served. The Hoorische with Specksauce – a Palatinate variation of potato dumplings – is a classic that is maintained in many West Palatinate events and finds its home here.

Anchored in District Culture

Pirmasens-Gersbach is a lively district with an active club scene. The Ostermarkt der Landfrauen is just one part of a rich event calendar, which also includes the Maibaumfest (Maypole festival), the Dorffest (village festival), and the Maimädchenfest (May maiden festival). The multi-purpose hall is the focal point of this community life and provides the infrastructure for all major activities of the Gersbach community.

Ostermarkt Gersbach — edition 2026

On Saturdays from 1:30 PM to 5:00 PM, and on Sundays from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM, 41 hobby artists will present their Easter decorations, handicrafts, jams, and honey.
