Overview

The Winnämä Kerwa 2025 took place as every year on the fourth weekend of July. Four days of Franconian Kirchweih in Burgwindheim with Kirchweihbaum, parade of the Kerwasburschen and -madli on Sunday, and traditional Hahnenschlag on Festival Monday. The organizers were again the Kirchweihburschen und -madli Burgwindheim e.V.

The 2025 edition of the Winnämä Kerwa continued the unbroken festival tradition. Festival tent operation, parade, and Hahnenschlag shaped the program — the Kerwasburschen and -madli led the Kärwa safely through the four festival days as usual.

As always, the Kerwa offered an opportunity for village gatherings: locals returning home, club members, and guests from the region came together at the Burgwindheim festival grounds.
