Tonnenabschlagen Born a. Darß

The 2025 edition took place in warm late summer weather and, as usual, attracted residents, holiday guests, and tradition enthusiasts from the entire region to the festival grounds. The traditional daily schedule — awakening, king's breakfast, parade, tournament, crowning, ball — was faithfully followed.

The Tonnenabschlagen Born is part of the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage and is maintained by the local Tonnenverein for generations. In 2025, the festival once again ensured full piers, many horses in the village, and a jubilant atmosphere at the evening Tonnenball.
