Schwabbruck 900 Years Festival Weekend

900th Anniversary of Schwabbruck

In 2026, the municipality of Schwabbruck in southwestern Upper Bavaria will celebrate its 900th anniversary. Schwabbruck is located in the Weilheim-Schongau district, in the scenically beautiful Auerbergland region – between Schongau, Steingaden, and the Lech Valley. On the occasion of the anniversary, the municipality, together with all local clubs, is organizing a three-day festival weekend.

Festival Weekend July 31 – August 2, 2026

The festival weekend is listed in the event calendar of the neighboring municipality of Schwabsoien as well as in Schwabbruck's own schedule. According to current announcements, the following are planned:

• A village festival in the town center with catering and live music by local bands, especially the Schwabbruck Music Band
• A market with regional vendors
• Frühschoppen (morning pint) and a coffee and cake program at the historic Pröbstlmühle mill
• Further program items from the clubs (traditional costume groups, fire department, sports clubs), which will be successively published on the municipal website in spring 2026

Pröbstlmühle as a Venue

The Pröbstlmühle mill is a traditional venue in Schwabbruck and one of the central locations for the anniversary celebration. It will be used for both the Frühschoppen and the coffee and cake program; the exact program structure (performances, gastronomic offerings, guided tours) will be announced before the festival weekend.

Schwabbruck in the Auerbergland

Schwabbruck (around 600 inhabitants) is one of the typical small farming and residential communities in the Pfaffenwinkel/Auerbergland region. The area between the Allgäu and Tölzer Land is scenically attractive and culturally characterized by pilgrimage churches (Wieskirche near Steingaden) and a strong club life. The 900th anniversary is an occasion to celebrate regional identity.
