Numerous stalls along the main street and in the side streets invite you to meet and talk to the participating artists and, of course, to buy their works. Most of the courtyards of local artists and residents of Friedrichsrode are also open. The range of artistic disciplines represented at the KUNSTMARKT has always been extremely diverse and now attracts several thousand visitors to the town of 70 souls, including visitors from beyond the region.
