Fools' Day has officially arrived in Thuringia, and Wasungen is no exception. Gathering in the region's most well-known Fasching hotspot, these merrymakers are ready to paint the town red – or rather, foolishly yellow – with their raucous parades.
Were You Invited?
Umzügen verstärkt, beispielsweise werden die Zufahrten mit festen Sperren und schweren Lastwagen blockiert. Thüringenweit gibt es nach Angaben des Landesverbandes der Karnevalvereine in dieser Narrensaison etwa 110 Umzüge, einige zogen schon in den vergangenen Wochen durch die Orte, weitere folgen am Rosenmontag.
Foolishly enough, nearly 2,000 participants are marking the season's most important weekend in Wasungen. The big parade, with its lively motto "Ob jong, ob alt, mie könne's halt" (Whether young or old, we can do it), invites anyone who fancy's a stroll through the streets.

Prepare yourself for 99 eye-popping images, each captured between the strays of confetti and the harmonious clinks of steins. Wasungen's monstrous Fasching tradition, boasting close to 500 years, is undeniably one of the longest in Germany. Street Fasching, in particular, has been raising the roof in Wasungen since 1637, with 489 delightful processions to date.
