Things to do
The Bartholomäusmarkt takes place on the penultimate weekend in August. It goes back to a market introduced after the city was founded in 1312, which over the years changed from a weekly market to a fair. The Katzenelnbogen Ritterspiele have been taking place on the first weekend in June since 2007, inspired by the historical ring prick that can be seen on an old view of Katzenelnbogen.
