Schützengilde Walchum/Hasselbrock

The SG Walchum/Hasselbrock e.V. is a joint shooting club of two neighboring villages: Walchum and Hasselbrock. Where a single village would be too small for its own club, neighboring communities join forces — a proven practice in the Emsland that secures village club life across generations.

Samtgemeinde Dörpen

Walchum and Hasselbrock are part of the Samtgemeinde Dörpen in the northern Emsland. This rural region, with its strong Catholic character, cultivates a particularly vibrant shooting culture — almost every village has its own club and its own festival.

Two Festival Days

Saturday, June 6, 2026

Festival kickoff with collecting the king, march to the festival grounds, opening evening with live music or DJ.

Sunday, June 7, 2026

Festival church service, bird shooting, king's dinner, festival parade through Walchum and Hasselbrock, king proclamation, dance evening.

Hasselbergstraße — The Traditional Festival Grounds

The festival grounds on Hasselbergstraße in Walchum are the traditional home of the Schützengilde. Schützenfeste have been held here for generations; this is where the club life is anchored.

Club Life and Village Community

Like all rural Schützenfeste, the Walchum-Hasselbrock festival thrives on the voluntary commitment of its club members. From setting up the festival tent to the catering, much is organized in-house — this makes the festival familial, personal, and unique.
