Annafest and others

Posted by Rob Sterowski on 2022-02-27 07:44:29

The Annafest was cancelled during WWI and once the war was over they also had revolution, Spanish flu and hyperinflation to cope with, so it didn’t restart until 1921. It was postponed in 1932 out of fear that the July election would lead to street fighting between Nazis and Communists. It took place in 1939 before the war broke out and started again in 1946. (Source for all this: https://www.nordbayern.de/region/forchheim/corona-aus-fur-das-annafest-2020-in-forchheim-1.10029336) I intend to go this year, if we haven’t all been incinerated by then.
