Farewell to the market champion: Victor Crichton leaves Hanauer weekly market!

On February 9, 2025, Victor Crichton, who acted as market champion of the Hanau weekly market for decades, was solemnly adopted. With over two decades of experience, he left a formative trace in the urban market. Numerous guests took part in this special ceremony, including City Councilor Isabelle Hemsley, Head of Thorsten Wünschmann and department head Jörg Teffner. Many market feeders also wanted to say goodbye to their long -standing contact.

During the farewell, Jörg Teffner Crichtons recognized outstanding commitment and described him as an indispensable carer. Crichton had the task of organizing market operations not only during regular times, but was also a central figure in times of crisis and during the redesign of the city center. In his early years he received the stand fees in cash, and during the Corona pandemic he ensured that the market could be continued under the difficult conditions.

With pride, Crichton can also look back on his more than 20 years of responsibility for the Hanau Christmas market. This event was not only a professional commitment, but also became a matter close to the heart for the market master. As a Nicholas, he often appeared and thus provided special experiences among the visitors. The warm words of Jörg Teffner and the words of thanks sent by market feeder Thomas Burkart reflected the appreciation that Crichton enjoyed in the entire community.

Crichton is described as a committed family man who was proud of his children and grandchildren. His successors are now facing the challenge of filling the gap left behind.

In addition, there is an artist Christmas market in the foyer of the Neustädter town hall, which is accessible from Sunday to Friday from 1pm to 8pm and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. A Christmas market entitled "Wintergold" will also take place during the same time in the Fronhof am Schlossplatz. The lovingly decorated city center of Hanau will create a romantic ambience that is supplemented by sparkling lights and live music in the Fronhof.
