About Kirmes Untershausen

The Kirmes Untershausen is the traditional summer kirmes (fair) of the Westerwald community Untershausen. For four days, the village center around the festival grounds and community hall transforms into a lively Volksfest (public festival) area with a festival tent, live music, Frühschoppen (morning pint), family afternoon, carousel, and food stalls. Clubs and volunteers provide catering and jointly organize the program. The date is part of the official Kirmes calendar 2026 of the Montabaur municipality and fits into the dense network of Westerwald kirmes dates that bring the region's villages together throughout the summer.

Westerwald Village Fair

The Kirmes Untershausen is one of the traditional summer kirmes of the Montabaur municipality and is anchored in the official Kirmes calendar 2026 of the Montabaur VG (as of October 2025). It follows a long line of Westerwald kirmes events that take place every weekend of the summer in a different municipality of the Verbandsgemeinde, shaping the rural festival life.

Four Days of Program

From June 19, 2026, to June 22, 2026, the kirmes offers a classic Westerwald program including the opening of the festival tent with a keg tapping ceremony, dance and disco evenings, Frühschoppen on Sunday with club participation, and a family afternoon with coffee, cake, and a carousel. Food stalls, sweet shops, and drink stands complement the festival tent events.

Club and Village Life

The local clubs and the municipal council are the organizers of the kirmes, pooling their strengths for the joint summer festival. The fire department, sports clubs, music clubs, carnival associations, and youth groups participate in the program and catering. This makes the kirmes more than just an amusement park: it is an expression of a vibrant village community and living tradition in the Westerwald.
