Culture Markets Bremgarten is known for its four large markets, which attract tens of thousands of visitors and are of great importance for tourism. The Easter market on Easter Monday (including the agricultural machinery market) and the Whitsun market on Whit Monday have a tradition going back more than 750 years. The Old Town Market is held on two days at the end of October and focuses on arts and crafts. Since 1995, the Christchindlimärt has been held over four days at the beginning of December. With over 100,000 visitors and more than 300 market stalls, it is now the largest Christmas market in Switzerland and has gained international renown. In addition, weekly markets are held every Wednesday and Saturday from March to November. Alternative culture In June 1990, young people occupied a textile mill that had been vacant for 16 years. The following year, the Verein Kulturzentrum Bremgarten KuZeB was founded, which aimed to create a small version of the Wohlgroth in Zurich. Since 1992, the association has had a tenancy with the owner of the factory building. The cultural programme of the KuZeB ranges from concerts of alternative and subculture of international format to readings and political lectures. In parts of the population, the appearance of the building leads to rejection.
