Meistertrunk Rothenburg ob der Tauber

The Meistertrunk in Rothenburg o.d.T. – that means living history and colorful events against the unique backdrop of this medieval town. In the exciting and gripping stage play “The Master’s Drink”, the dramatic events of 1631 are performed every year, when the former mayor Nusch saved the town from ruin with his mighty drink. Parades, camp life, market hustle and bustle and numerous events have enchanted guests from near and far for more than a century. The palpable joy the people of Rothenburg take in their festival, which they organize and celebrate with great dedication and loving attention to detail, gives these historic festivals a very special, informal atmosphere.
