Kirchweih in the Fränkische Schweiz

The Kirchweih Hollfeld is among the liveliest Kirchweihen (Kerwa) in the Fränkische Schweiz. It is celebrated in the town of Hollfeld as well as in the districts of Treppendorf and Drosendorf, located in the Bayreuth district, Bavaria. The Kirchweih is traditionally observed on the Sunday closest to September 8th and celebrated over several days.

What is a Kirchweih?

The Kirchweih (Kerwa) originally commemorates the consecration of the local church and is one of the most important village and town festivals in Franconia. It combines a religious celebration with secular conviviality: dance evenings, traditional music, festival activities, and community gatherings characterize the days.

Several Locations, One Festival

The special feature of the Hollfeld Kirchweih is that it encompasses not only the main town but also the districts of Treppendorf and Drosendorf. This creates a dense festival program over five days that involves the entire region. In Treppendorf, the so-called Stadelkerwa has established itself as a popular tradition.
