A Sunday Like in the Middle Ages
The Zeidlermarkt Feucht is one of the most atmospheric medieval markets in Middle Franconia. It takes place in the town center of the market community Feucht in the Nürnberger Land district in Bavaria and attracts numerous visitors from the Nuremberg metropolitan region every year.
Zeidlerei as Historical Background
The namesake is Zeidlerei, the medieval forest beekeeping. The Lorenzer Reichswald forest around Feucht was one of the most important centers for Zeidler (forest beekeepers) for centuries. The local Zeidelmuseum, which offers guided tours during the market, also commemorates this tradition.
Medieval Market and Show Program
The market opens with cannon shots, followed by a grand medieval procession. At the market, craftsmen demonstrate old skills such as blacksmithing, pottery, and woodturning, complemented by camp life, mock combats, and the traditional capture of prominent guests by the medieval reenactors.
Family Program
From the afternoon onwards, the family program takes center stage: jugglers, magicians, and storytellers entertain young and old. Children can actively participate in knight games, a knight's tournament, and sand painting.
Sunday with Open Shops
Accompanying this, the Sunday with open shops from 1 PM to 6 PM invites visitors for a shopping stroll, combining historical market activities with the local retail trade.
