An authentic festival with a long history.

What began as a tranquil festival in 1840 is now known far beyond the borders of Franconia. The roots of the traditional Annafest branch out in three directions. The cool beer storage in the sandstone caves, pilgrimages in honour of St. Anne and, last but not least, the relocation of the royal shooting range to the Kellerwald forest have developed over the centuries into an annual spectacle that authentically reflects the Franconian joie de vivre.
