Dorffest Hausen – Civic Festival with History
The Dorffest Hausen is one of the oldest civic festivals in the western Spessart. Since 1995, the Municipality of Hausen, together with local clubs, organisations, and businesses, has organised this festival every first Sunday in September – in 2024, the 29th edition was already on the calendar; in 2026, the approximately 31st edition will follow. The venue is the town centre around Hauptstraße 64.
Hausen in the Aschaffenburg District
With around 2,000 inhabitants, Hausen is a small Spessart community in the western district of Aschaffenburg (Lower Franconia, Bavaria). Its location between the Hochspessart and the Maintal makes it a typical representative of "Churfranken culture" – apple wine tradition, Kerbfeste, and well-kept village festival customs shape the festival calendar.
What Happens at the Dorffest
The main street will be closed to through traffic from Saturday afternoon; the festival begins on Sunday at 10:00 AM. Stands in the town centre will be run by clubs, aid organisations, and local businesses. The programme is diverse:
- Music: from performances by Harmonie Hausen (brass band) and folk music ensembles to rock cover bands and party formats. In recent years, award-winning young artists such as Jona Brand have also performed.
- Local History: the local history and heritage association offers genealogical research based on its extensive archive.
- Photo Exhibition: a changing exhibition on Hausen's local history.
- Family Programme: interactive stands and activities for children.
- Cuisine: Coffee, cake, Franconian specialities, Spessart beer, apple wine.
A Festival Autumn with Three Weekends
The Dorffest is not just one day, but the kick-off to a small festival autumn: on Monday, September 7, 2026, from 11:00 AM, the FFW Kerbfest of the Volunteer Fire Brigade takes place at the fire station yard. On Sunday, September 20, 2026, the Music Association invites you to the Ebbelwoifest in the Erwin-Braun-Festhalle on Dornauer Weg – an apple wine festival typical of Spessart apple wine culture.
Traffic Regulations
The main street in the town centre will be closed for the Dorffest – from Saturday 3:00 PM to Monday 8:00 AM. Residents and guests are asked to observe the diversion signs and to walk through the festival grounds.
