Marksmen Tradition in Upper Franconia

The Schützenfest mit Bürgerschießen is a fixed date in the club year of the Köditz 1909 e.V. marksmen's club. The marksmen's tradition has centuries of history in Bavaria, and the club, founded in 1909, keeps this custom alive in the Upper Franconian municipality of Köditz in the Hof district.

Bürgerschießen for Everyone

The Bürgerschießen is the heart of the festival: Unlike purely club competitions, citizens without club membership are also invited here to demonstrate their skills at the shooting ranges. This community-building element makes the Schützenfest a celebration for the entire village, not just the club.

A Festival Weekend

The Schützenfest is part of a whole series of events in Köditz: The day before, the marksmen's club hosts a flea market at the shooting range, and a few days later, the local kindergarten's summer festival follows. This density of events showcases the active club life of the municipality.

Köditz in the Hof District

The municipality of Köditz is located in the far north of Bavaria in the Hof district, near the border with Thuringia and Saxony. Festivals like the Schützenfest are characteristic of the strong club and traditional culture of this Upper Franconian region.
