St. Hubertus Schützenbruderschaft Scharrel
The St. Hubertus Schützenbruderschaft Scharrel is one of the traditional marksmen's associations in the Saterland municipality. The patron saint Hubertus—patron saint of hunters and marksmen—points to the close connection between the marksmen's tradition and Catholic piety in the Oldenburg Münsterland and the Saterland region. Scharrel is the main town of the Saterland municipality, and the Schützenfest is one of the village's major summer festivals.
Classic Schedule of a Schützenfest
The three-day festival follows the classic schedule of North German Schützenfeste: collection of the king on Saturday, festive procession, church service, king's dinner, proclamation and coronation of the new royal court, and evening dances in the festival tent with a live band. Additionally, there are children's king shooting, cup competitions, and the traditional morning pint on Monday.
