A weekend at the Taunuskerb

The Taunuskerb ist an event that takes place in Oberursel marking the weekend when the current Church of St.Ursula was consecrated in 1659. It starts on the Friday evening and culminates on Saturday when the “Kerbebaum” tree is errected at the “Bleiche” in view of the church.

I was there several times last weekend and my report is on the front page of the Oberurseler Woche today. Click here to read it (in German).

Twinning and Awards

Last week I was at the annual Citizen’s reception celebrating 60 years of twinning with Épinay-sur-Seine in France and 35 years with Rushmoor in England. As is the tradition at this event, the Citzen’s medal was awarded to a local organisation and prizes for worthy local youth projects were handed out.
