Dating back to at least 1827, it focuses on pottery and ceramics; the highlight is the famous Päckvillercher, the small clay bird whistles sold only at this festival 1. Folk music and food stalls line the narrow lanes around the Fish Market square during the day, creating a lively springtime festival atmosphere 2 3.
Named after the biblical village of Emmaus, the festival blends Christian Easter tradition with local folk craft heritage. Locals see it as a symbolic welcome of spring, combining a market atmosphere with a reference to the Emmaus story 1.
