St. Martin's procession in Bernkastel-Kues
The St. Martin's procession in Bernkastle-Kues will take place on 12.11.2024.
The town of Bernkastel-Kues invites you to this year's St Martin parade on Tuesday 12 November. St Martin will parade through the town on horseback together with a large number of children with lanterns to the St Martin's bonfire at the Moselle car park in Bernkastel, below the town's green spaces (near Hotel Bären). The meeting point for the children from Kues is at 5.00 pm at the ‘Alter Bahnhof’ forum. Together with the town's music association and the volunteer fire brigade, the parade heads towards Bahnhofstraße, crossing the bridge to Bernkasteler Gestade. The children from Bernkastel meet at the Moselle Guest Centre (Gestade 6) and join the arriving St Martin's procession at around 5:45 pm. They then continue together through Grabenstraße to Graacher Tor. Via Graacher Straße, Alte Römerstraße and the market square, the procession returns to the bridgehead. From there, the procession heads in the direction of the municipal administration to the Mosel car park. At the Martinsfeuer, St Martin will hand out pretzels to all the children. This year, the pretzels will be donated by the Andreas Ruf family. The Bernkastel fire brigade will accompany the St Martin's procession and provide protection during the burning of the bonfire. The town of Bernkastel-Kues would like to point out that, for safety reasons, burning pitch torches may only be lit at the St Martin's bonfire. Burning pitch torches are not permitted during the entire procession. The town of Bernkastel-Kues would like to thank all helpers for their active support.
