Hugo-Haase-Jahrmarkt - Jahrmarkt wie anno dazumal

• Markets

Climb into the oldest active Ferris wheel in Germany and see Winsen from above. Let yourself be enchanted by the atmosphere of a fairground like in the old days.

A historic barrel organ lures visitors from afar to the fair, where plenty of juggler fun and historic rides await you. Shows, carousels and fairground stalls take you back to the time of Winsen's "carousel king Hugo Haase", who had a significant influence on the fair.

The museum in the Marstall offers a varied program that will delight young and old alike: children can go for a spin on historic rides or whirl around on the swing carousel . They can try their luck at duck fishing or test their strength at the sleight of hand game. Several cabaret artists liven up the day with their spectacular performances:

Experience how Iron Hans uses his powers, a magician spreads amazement and Freddy's flea circus presents the only piranha flea not living in the wild, "Freddy".

You can have your cards read in a historic showman's wagon or practice your cabaret skills at hands-on stations.

Be excited and let yourself be enchanted by a colorful spectacle of fairground art !

Hugo Haase, a native of Winsen, gave the fair its name. At the beginning of the 20th century, he revolutionized the fairgrounds of his time with his illuminated rides and carousel palaces and became a pioneer of modern leisure society. A small exhibition on the castle square gives you an insight into his life and work.

There is a lot on offer and a weekend full of cheerfulness, fun and fairground hustle and bustle awaits you!

Admission costs €3 for adults, children up to 18 years and members of the local history and museum association have free admission.

Please note that some offers incur an additional charge. The cabaret performances, the card reading, the Punch and Judy show and much more are included in the price.
