The Dießener pottery market is also the target alternative date from the 10. to 13. September will not take place. At noon yesterday, the municipality announced the final cancellation of the largest pottery market in the South of Germany in the train of the Corona-pandemic for this year.
Dießen – The faint hope of mayor Sandra Perzul and market Director Wolfgang Lösche is on Monday dispersed, it was said in the press release for the definitive cancellation of the Dießener pottery market. Because on Monday I reported to the Bavarian Ministry of economic Affairs in the city hall, and his assessment of the situation: Accordingly, it was at the Potter’s market is not a market, but a large-scale event with more than 1000 visitors. And these events are said until the end of October. The Ministry therefore see at the present time, no realization of opportunity.
“The decision is very difficult for us, but the state guidelines are – as of today – unfortunately, there is no other decision,” is quoted Perzul in the communication from the pen of Director Karl-Heinz Springer. Also market head Delete is sad – not least because of the potters market this year with its 20. We could have celebrated an anniversary. “The shift to the autumn was provided with the hope that we can allow the market to still take place,” he explains. “Unfortunately, smash this glimmer of hope now.”
Originally Dießener pottery market takes place in may to the long weekend around ascension day. Tens of thousands of visitors come to the four days in the offshore units. Already, this date had, however, to corona due to be cancelled. More than 150 German and international workshops of art and household pottery had originally signed up for the pottery market. Many of them would have loved to come to the September date to the Ammersee.
On the direction of the market, the local councils had advised on Monday evening in the non-public part of its meeting behind closed doors. This procedure not only angered local councillor Michael Lutz eggs (The party), uttered only his surprise, but open to the public.
The Potter’s market is a crucial economic factor for the municipality and the international ceramists scene. Whether in September, however, so many Fans to Dießen date came as the original may-may be doubted. The school year has already begun. In addition, many do not consider in Corona-times necessary to travel twice. The complete range is now probably back at the potters market in 2021 of 13. to 16. May, give.
