Traditional club festival of the volunteer fire brigade at the fire station
The Sommerfest of the Freiwillige Feuerwehr Niedermurach looks back on a long tradition: first held in 1978 as a garden party, it was later renamed "Sommerfest" and has taken place annually ever since – the 39th edition in 2025. It is the major social event of the club and village year.
The celebration takes place at the Niedermurach Fire Station on Pertolzhofener Straße 7a. Marquee operations, hearty brass music, catering with Upper Palatinate delicacies, and a convivial get-together ensure the typical Sommerfest atmosphere. The festival is entirely supported by the voluntary work of the fire brigade comrades – helpers meet in the days before the festival for setup.
The Sommerfest takes place every year around mid-August (August 15 in 2025). Its annual recurrence is documented through the administrative community of Oberviechtach, the Niedermurach fire brigade, and the local press (Onetz) – a fixed date in the region's event calendar.
The municipality of Niedermurach is located in the district of Schwandorf, in the wooded Upper Palatinate hill country near Oberviechtach. Club life and traditions play a central role here – the fire brigade's Sommerfest is one of the most important social events and a meeting point for the entire village community.
In 2026, the Freiwillige Feuerwehr Niedermurach will again host its traditional Sommerfest around mid-August at the fire station. Its annual recurrence is documented via ffw-niedermurach.de, the administrative community of Oberviechtach, and the local press.
Marquee operations with hearty brass music, Upper Palatinate delicacies, catering, and a convivial get-together – a village festival supported by voluntary work for the entire community.
