Overview

In 2025, the market town of Kohlberg also celebrated its traditional Kirwa around Corpus Christi. A festive church service and procession with participants in traditional costume, as well as convivial festivities in the town center, continued the tradition of over 300 years.

The Kohlberg Kirchweih 2025 was celebrated around the Corpus Christi festival, as has been the custom for centuries. The festive church service and procession with participants in festive traditional costume – Dirndls, Lederhosen, and heritage garments – as well as the convivial festivities in the town center of the market town of Kohlberg, characterized the festival. As one of the longest documented Kirchweih festivals in the Oberpfalz (first mentioned in 1723), the Kohlberg Kirwa once again held its firm place in the Upper Palatinate customs calendar in 2025 and remained the unifying festival of the year for the market community.
