Fastnachtsumzug Trier-Ruwer

Ruwer in eastern Trier is a small, rural wine and district community, giving its name to the Ruwertal region with its world-famous Riesling vineyards – such as the renowned Maximin Grünhaus vineyard. The Trier district parades are staggered throughout the carnival days, so after the main parades on Sunday (Pfalzel) and Monday (main parade + Ehrang), the Ruwer parade on Shrove Tuesday concludes the Trier carnival events.

Assembly takes place in Hermeskeiler Straße – the main traffic artery towards Hermeskeil and the Schwarzwälder Hochwald. The parade includes floats from Ruwer's carnival clubs, walking groups, school groups, and friendly clubs from the neighboring Ruwertal communities (Mertesdorf, Eitelsbach, Kasel, etc.). Afterwards, the carnival moves to Ruwer's clubhouses and inns for the traditional closing celebration.
