Gunzenhausen - Kirchweih / Kerwa

For many Gunzenhausen residents, the month of September is traditionally the best time of the year. The Kerwa is just around the corner and the fifth season begins.

Our Kerwa is a living and vibrant tradition that has nothing to hide from any festival in the world. Quite the opposite: Gunzenhausen's Schießwasen may not be as big as Munich's Theresienwiese, and there are probably also fewer discounter dirndls to admire ... but our fair is 400 years older than the . Our Kerwa is unrivalled in terms of variety and a real treat for the people. Here you can forget the stress of everyday life and enjoy life to the full. If you like it wild, you'll love the numerous rides. Those who prefer a quieter pace can stroll through the stalls or try their luck at a game of skill. In the attractive, festively decorated beer tents, not only is food and drink well catered for, but fans and friends of music and dancing will also find plenty to enjoy. The Gunzenhausen Kerwa thus also becomes a reflection of life, a place where locals, newcomers and travellers can spend happy hours in a relaxed atmosphere.
