Oberursel’s Brunnenfest runs from Friday, 24 May until Monday, 27 May.
Oberursel, often related to as the Brunnenstadt (Brunnen: fountain, spring, well), is home to more than 60 fountains, springs, and wells.
Yesterday evening, we took a little walk through the fest area and looked at the preparations being made. Of course, we hope for warmer temps as this has been a very cool month of May so far.
Music will be playing until midnight on both Friday and Saturday, and until 23:00 on Sunday and Monday.
Drinks can be served until 01:00 on both Friday and Saturday, and until midnight on Sunday and Monday (same hours go for the amusement park rides).
And yes, it’s true. There are no fireworks this year due to financial reasons.
What do the locals residents do for these four days when there’s little sleep, no chance to get out by car, etc? I had overheard a conversation on the bus a few years ago, “My husband and I always leave town during Brunnenfest and rent a quiet place in the mountains”, she said.

Oberursel is a very pretty town. It would be like a paradise with beer gaggle!!
Wait till you come here and then… I drag you to one of the picturesque Biergartens in Oberursel.
