Georgiritt Gunzendorf to Senftenbergkapelle

The 2025 Georgiritt continued the centuries-old tradition of the horse pilgrimage to the Senftenbergkapelle. As every year around St. George's Day, the magnificently decorated procession of riders, accompanied by brass music, moved from Gunzendorf up to the chapel on the Senftenberg. The church service and animal blessing formed the spiritual core, after which participants gathered for Franconian beer and Kirchweih specialties at the Senftenberg-Felsenkeller. The pilgrimage was organized, as it has been since 1951, by the Catholic parish of Gunzendorf.
