Weißenburg Old Town Festival

In 2025, the Weißenburg Old Town Festival once again attracted numerous visitors to the historic old town on the third weekend in July. For three days, beer and wine gardens, street musicians, jugglers, and stage programs characterized the cityscape between Luitpoldstraße, Stadtgraben, and the historic towers. The traditional Imperial City Marksmen's Guild (Reichsstädtische Schützenzeche) with the marksmen's parade and the king's proclamation formed the festive core once again. The free admission made the festival equally attractive for families and out-of-town guests, confirming Weißenburg's status as a vibrant center in the Franconian Lake District.
