40 years later: The return of the harvest crown to the celebration in Bad Saulgau
The tradition of Thanksgiving has a special place in Bad Saulgau. Over the years, not only the celebration has changed, but also the way we design these special occasions. A striking sign of this development is the return of the small harvest crown, which after 40 years sees the light of day again. The harvest crown was originally introduced in 1984 when the parish church was renovated and the large crown could not be used there. The decision to bind a smaller crown for the festival was then a creative solution that revives today.
With a lot of dedication and work, members of the local and traditional costume club have re-bound the harvest crown. The process was anything but easy and took a lot of time and effort. The preparation included numerous evenings that were spent in the fields to cut and bundle the necessary ears. It is a wonderful memory of how important the community is in such traditions. This radiant crown is now understood not only as a memory of the past, but also as a sign of connection.
The Thanksgiving Celebration and their importance
On Sunday, October 6, 2024, the Thanksgiving Celebration in the parish church of St. Johannes will be given a special honor. For this event, two harvest crowns are introduced into the solemn events, which is a rare opportunity. The people in Bad Saulgau are invited to take part in this festive ceremony and to celebrate this wonderful return of tradition together. The festival service begins at 10:30 a.m. and promises to become an important festival for the entire community.
Such events are not only significant for maintaining culture, they also promote the community and the mutual understanding of the members of the city. It is important that customs and traditions are kept alive, because they not only bring the past to life, but also offer a framework for community experiences and exchange.
Over the years, the residents have proven how important it is to preserve old traditions and keep them alive for future generations. This thought is also taken up in the words of the organizers: "Faithful to the good, old custom!" And "Sitt and costume of the old ones, we want to get!" These statements show the appreciation of the cultural roots of the community and the will to actively live these traditions.
Another remarkable aspect is the fact that the articles on such events are often written by various clubs, schools, parishes and initiatives. This shows how diverse the voices and contributions are in the community that strengthen the cohesion and enrich cultural life. The editorial team has carefully checked and released these articles, but it indicates that no guarantee is assumed for the correctness of all information.
at a time when many traditions disappear from everyday life, it is all the more beautiful to see how a small part of the harvest history is brought back in Bad Saulgau. This Thanksgiving celebration is more than just a festive occasion; It is a symbol of respect for your own roots and the joy of the community. The return of the harvest crown will bring people together and rekindle the spirit of celebration and thanks.
