The Whitsun procession

From 23 to 25 May 2026

Animation ponctuelle<br>En famille<br>Événement exceptionnel <br>Nature<br>Traditions

Free

This great spring procession brings together strange characters mounted on sturdy horses: the snail barker, the frost sniffer or the street sweeper... The most talkative, the Pfengschtflitteri (or Whitsun Foliage), is an incarnation of the spirit of nature. His humorous speech does not convince the villagers who want to ensure good harvests and who therefore throw him into the river to guarantee the predictions!
