Kirchweih for the whole community

The Kirchweih Mönchsroth is jointly supported by all local clubs and takes place around the Rothachhalle. For three days, it combines tradition, church service, and conviviality into a festival for young and old.

Riflemen and Brass Band

The riflemen in front of the Rothachhalle provide a loud opening. Before that, the guests of honour, accompanied by a brass band, march from the village church to the hall, where the mayor taps the first Kirchweih keg.

Church Service, Skittles, and Kerwa-Sau

The fixed program includes the Kirchweih festival church service in the village church, the Kirchweih skittles in the local inn, and the evening raffle of the 'Kerwa-Sau'. A traditional town hall meeting, where the mayor looks back on the work of the municipal council, is also part of the Kerwa.

West Middle Franconian Tradition

The Kirchweih Mönchsroth is a living example of the Kirchweih culture of West Middle Franconia – supported by the commitment of the clubs and the entire village community.
