Carnival parade "Strassner Trommelweiber"
Mo., 16.02.2026 13:00 O'clock
The Strassner Trommelweiber start at family Freismuth vlg. Hitter at Radling to their parade through the district of Strassen.
Men dressed in spotless white nightdresses and sleeping hoods introduce their performance on Carnival Monday with a deafening noise on large drums and other "instruments".
Men in women's nightdresses of past centuries want to drive the winter out of the village with drums and trumpets. In earlier times, it was believed that forces of nature, such as winter, could be chased away with noise. On Shrove Monday, the drum women march through the district of Strassen to the tune of the "Ausseer Faschingmarsch" (Shrove March of Aussee). This tune is carried by a rhythm that can be heard in all corners of Ausseerland during the three "holy" Shrove Days. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
