About FF-Grillfest Linau

The barbecue of the Linau Volunteer Fire Brigade is one of the village's central summer social events. At the fire station, the Linau Volunteer Fire Brigade invites the entire village community for a summer evening with grilled specialities, cold beer, and conversations. As with many village fire brigade festivals, the event combines socialising, fundraising (support for the association), and recognition of volunteers. In the district of Herzogtum Lauenburg, where almost every municipality has its own brigade, such festivals are a firm fixture in the summer calendar.

Village Community at the Fire Station

In many North German villages, the volunteer fire brigade is more than just a response team for fires and emergencies — it is the most important meeting point and the driving force behind community life. The annual barbecue is one of the occasions where the brigade thanks the village for its support, attracts new members, and spends a relaxed summer evening with all the residents of Linau.

Linau in the District of Herzogtum Lauenburg

Linau is a small municipality with around 750 inhabitants in the District of Herzogtum Lauenburg (Schleswig-Holstein), east of Hamburg between Trittau and Schwarzenbek. The municipality is predominantly rural and agricultural; many Linau residents commute to Hamburg. The fire brigade, the shooting club, a vintage car club, and smaller sports and cultural associations form the village's community life.
