Kirchweih Schönberg

The 2025 edition was extensively covered by the Nuremberg local press (Nürnberger Nachrichten). Reports included the erection of the 25-meter Kirwabaum — one of the most spectacular erection choreographies in the entire region — and the traditional cannon shots that echoed throughout the Pegnitz Valley. The Kirwaboum Schönberg reliably carried the festival again in 2025.

The Schönberg Kirwa is considered one of the most distinctive Franconian Kirchweihen in the Middle Franconian region — both because of the height of the Kirwabaum and the consistently maintained tradition of Vuuglsuppn and cannon shots. Families from all over the Pegnitz Valley regularly come to the Kirwa, many also from outside the Nürnberger Land.
