The Härtsfeld and its 'Hocketse' Tradition
Nattheim is a municipality of around 6,000 inhabitants in the Heidenheim district (state of Baden-Württemberg) in the Härtsfeld – a plateau of the eastern Swabian Jura between Heidenheim and Aalen. The Härtsfeld is a distinct cultural landscape with its own customs, dialect nuances, and a strong sense of community through its clubs. A 'Hocketse' or 'Hock' is the typical Swabian form of summer open-air gathering – and the Nattheimer Breamahock is the annual major event celebrating this tradition.
Three Days of Festivities on Martinsplatz
The festival grounds are the central Martinsplatz at Neresheimer Straße 2 – Nattheim's village center. For three days, it hosts marquees, a stage, catering stands, and a family area. The event is organized by the Nattheim municipal administration in cooperation with local clubs – the music association, sports club, fire department, marksmen's club, and others take turns managing stalls, setup and takedown, catering, and stage presentations.
Program: Music, Family, Food & Drink
Various program items run over the three festival days:
- Live Music with regional bands, music associations from the Härtsfeld, and occasional cover bands in the evenings
- Family Program with face painting, bouncy castle, hands-on activities by the clubs
- Catering with Swabian-Ostalb specialties: 'Maultaschen' (Swabian ravioli), bratwurst, schnitzel, occasionally Härtsfeld smoked specialties, draft beer, Württemberg wine
- Traditional Sunday morning 'Frühschoppen' (early morning drinks) with brass music
Fleinheimer Dorffest as a Sister Event
Nattheim's event calendar also includes the Fleinheimer Dorffest (June 20–21, 2026) in the Fleinheim district, as well as the subsequent Breamahock After-Show Party as additional programming – indicating that Nattheim in the Härtsfeld maintains a vibrant festival culture with several highlights spread throughout the year.
