About the market

The Scherzmarkt has always served as a meeting place. The Krammarkt is one of the markets in Treysa documented in records as far back as the 16th century. It has been given a special significance in the Schwalm region since time immemorial. It takes place in the period "between the years". According to old custom, this was the period in which domestic servants could change their place of work ("scherzen"). In the evening, all the pubs in the old town are open and invite you to visit. The regular date is 28 December. However, if this falls on a Sunday, the Scherzmarkt takes place on 27.12.
