Eschwege is preparing for the safe Johannisfest 2025!

When the city of Eschwege calls for the Johannis Festival, the signs are at celebration! But this year at the traditional festival, which attracts more than 15,000 visitors, a new security concept is waiting for the guests. As reports HTA, the fully program of the festival is implemented. Preparations for this major event are intense; They take place in cooperation with the state police and are based on specific requirements that apply to events of this size, according to eschwege.de.

In a year in which other cities have canceled similar festivals, Eschwege has decided to carry out his festival. The security of visitors is the top priority. To ensure this, the package of measures includes modern security systems and physical vehicle barriers. The makeshift bridge over the Werra, which is only used for emergency services, is new this year to relieve the traffic situation.

full closure and arrival alternative

With the full closure of the city center from Friday evening from 3 p.m., enough space will be created for the festivities. For all visitors, this means: better do without the car! Parking outside the old town is recommended. If you bring a lot of patience, you can arrive on foot, by bike or in carpools.

On Saturday morning, the may train, this festive highlight, starts from three central collecting places around the Werra. The usual star -shaped move from the schools to the Werrabrücke is eliminated this year. The move leads through the pedestrian zone, past colorful stands, and ends on the market square. Like the entire city center, this is cordoned off during the festive season to enable a safe process.

strict locking times and traffic rules

For the fairground, strict locking times apply, which are intended to regulate the flow of traffic in the area. An overview of the times shows when vehicles are not allowed to run in this place:

• Thursday: 6 p.m. to 3 a.m.
• Friday: 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.
• Saturday: 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 a.m.

These specified times also apply to deliveries and supply trips that are not possible in the periods mentioned. One thing is clear: With these measures, the city of Eschwege not only wants to promote security, but also the well -being of residents and visitors and thanks you to the understanding of everyone involved.

innovations in security planning have become more important in recent years to protect against possible dangers from attacks or other unexpected events.
