Because to this day agriculture is one of the most important economic factors in the Lower Rhine.

The annual event highlights include the Marienthaler evenings, the midsummer market and the Martin market. The Midsummer Night Market takes place on the 3rd weekend in June, a special artisan market in the idyllic atmosphere of the village. At the Martinsmarkt, exhibitors show selected handicrafts and a wide variety of goods, and there is also a colorful supporting program.
