A Cultural Calendar “Fasching/ Karneval” – You will be able to open the doors starting February 15th.

Let us take you on a trip to Germany, Austria and Switzerland to celebrate the Fifth Season of the year, also called Carnival, Karneval, Fasching or Fasnacht.
Open the 8 doors of this cultural calendar and learn about the origins of this pre-Lent celebration of Fasching. Read about the regional differences, wild traditions, costumes, street parades and balls, some of which are celebrated here in Saskatchewan.
