Dippemess is a tradition which dates back to the 14th century. At that time, the Maamess, as it was then called, was a medieval market for domestic articles. Potters from the Westerwald, Kannebäckerland and Urberach came here to sell their wares, especially their ceramic bowls and pots. These were known in the Frankfurt dialect as 'Dippe' from which the event soon took its name. Over the years, more and more fairground booths and popular attractions joined the market as well.
The Dippemess today is Frankfurt’s largest fair and a lot of fun :)

    I was checking the most popular photos in Lomography and came across this one. I thought "oh, I took a similar photo once; but well, there are millios of fun fair photos out there". What is my surprise when I read on the description that actually we took it in the same spot in Frankfurt, just a few years apart :)
