Hallo liebe Community,
sorry aktuell ist beruflich viel los bei mir und ich komme nicht so meinen Urlaub in Nauders angemessen hier zu präsentieren. Aber heute ist es wieder an der zeit für einen weitern Post dazu.
Am nächsten Morgen sind wir über die Grenze nach Italien gefahren. Immer schön das Tal hinunter in Richtung Meran. Entlang am Reschensee immer weiter hinunter im Tal bis Glurns. Da es an diesem Tag Allerseelen war, wollten wir dort in Glurns den Seelenmarkt oder besser Sealamorkt besuchen, der nur einmal im Jahr an Allerseelen stattfindet.
Der Sealamorkt in Glurns ist weit über die Grenzen Südtirols hinaus bekannt und zählt zu den größten Jahrmärkten im gesamten Alpenraum. Jedes Jahr am 2. November, dem Allerseelentag, verwandelt sich die kleine, mittelalterliche Stadt Glurns in einen lebhaften Marktplatz.
Die Wurzeln des Sealamarktes reichen weit zurück. Ursprünglich diente er vor allem als Viehmarkt, wo Bauern ihre Tiere verkauften. Mit der Zeit entwickelte er sich jedoch zu einem vielseitigen Markt, der heute alles bietet, was das Herz begehrt: Von regionalen Produkten über Kleidung und Handwerk bis hin zu Dekorationsartikeln – hier findet jeder etwas Passendes, so auch wir :-)
Der Andrang war wirklich riesig, wie Ihr auf den Bildern sehen könnt. Schon bei unserer Ankunft mit Parkplatz auf der Kuhwiese konnten wir die mittelalterliche Stadtmauer bewundern, die tatsächlich den gesamten Ort einschloss. Findet man heutzutage auch nur noch selten sowas. Zahlreiche Stände luden uns dann zum Schlemmen ein. Ob herzhafte Südtiroler Spezialitäten oder süße Köstlichkeiten – für jeden Geschmack war etwas dabei. Mir hatten es die über dem Holzofen zubereiteten Maronen angetan. Die waren extrem lecker, trotz der verkolten Schale. Aber auch die Würste, Schinken und verschiedenen Käsearten, die man alle an den Ständen probieren konnte hatten es in sich. Das ist noch echte Liebe zum Produkt! Ein Stand hatte auch Nougat, das ich sonst eher aus Südfrankreich kenne, war aber auch sehr hohe Qualität und schmeckte hervorragend.
Auch traditionelles Handwerk kam natürlich nicht zu kurz hier: Handwerkliche Produkte wie Holzschnitzereien, Lederwaren oder handgefertigte Schmuckstücke zeugten von der traditionellen Handwerkskunst.
Die engen Gassen von Glurns waren an diesem Tag gefüllt mit Menschen aus nah und fern, die die besondere Atmosphäre genossen. Der Sealamorkt ist mehr als nur ein gewöhnlicher Markt. Er ist ein Fest für alle Sinne und ein Spiegelbild der südtiroler Kultur. Die Kombination aus Tradition, Moderne und der malerischen Kulisse von Glurns machte den Sealamorkt für uns zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis.
Viele Grüße und bis bald Euer

Hello dear community,
sorry, I'm currently very busy with work and I don't have time to present my vacation in Nauders properly here. But today it's time for another post.
The next morning we drove across the border into Italy. Always down the valley towards Merano. Along the Reschensee, further and further down the valley to Glurns. Since it was All Souls' Day that day, we wanted to visit the soul market or rather Sealamorkt in Glurns, which only takes place once a year on All Souls' Day.
The Sealamorkt in Glurns is known far beyond the borders of South Tyrol and is one of the largest fairs in the entire Alpine region. Every year on November 2nd, All Souls' Day, the small, medieval town of Glurns is transformed into a lively market place.
The roots of the Sealamarkt go back a long way. Originally it served mainly as a cattle market, where farmers sold their animals. Over time, however, it developed into a diverse market that now offers everything your heart desires: from regional products to clothing and handicrafts to decorative items - everyone will find something suitable here, including us :-)
The crowds were really huge, as you can see in the pictures. As soon as we arrived and parked on the cow meadow, we were able to admire the medieval city wall, which actually enclosed the entire town. You rarely find something like that these days. Numerous stalls then invited us to feast. Whether hearty South Tyrolean specialties or sweet delicacies - there was something for every taste. I was particularly fond of the chestnuts prepared over the wood-fired oven. They were extremely tasty, despite the charred shell. But the sausages, ham and various types of cheese that you could all try at the stalls were also really good. That's real love for the product! One stall also had nougat, which I usually know from the south of France, but it was also very high quality and tasted excellent.
Of course, traditional crafts were not neglected here either: handcrafted products such as wood carvings, leather goods or handmade jewelry testified to the traditional craftsmanship.
The narrow streets of Glurns were filled with people from near and far that day, who enjoyed the special atmosphere. The Sealamorkt is more than just an ordinary market. It is a festival for all the senses and a reflection of South Tyrolean culture. The combination of tradition, modernity and the picturesque backdrop of Glurns made the Sealamorkt an unforgettable experience for us.
Best wishes and see you soon, your
AL
