Since 1991 Wolkenstein has held its historical castle festival on Ascension Day and the following weekend.
Knight camps, fights and brawls, jugglers and gamers create a mediaeval atmosphere within the city walls.
Every year thousands of visitors flock to see the parades of the historical associations and costumes to mark the opening of the market. Old handcrafts, taverns and market stalls sell everything which the heart desires.
