It was no surprise that a joke made the round before the carnival train through “Klaa Paris”: “Heddernheim has not been as car -free as today since the first move in 1839,” it said. Due to the increased security requirements, all cars had to be driven out of the town center on Tuesday until 4 a.m., while in previous years there was only absolute parking ban on the two -kilometer train route. That worked surprisingly well: “Just ten cars had to be towed more than usual,” said Ulrich Fergenbauer, the chairman of the train community “Klaa Paris”.
The strict parking regiment was part of the security concept revised according to the recent attacks with twice as many roadblocks, which “Klaa Paris” financially brings to the edge of the possible. However, organizers and visitors of this traditional move did not allow themselves to be mood.
The second carnival parade in the more small Frankfurt district of Heddernheim goes back to two crafters who, in 1838, stimulated the Mainz move to celebrate the inauguration of the new village pump in this way. Even today, the Klaa Parisian land, the “Gemaa-Bump”, is honored when the train passes at its location in Alt-Heddernheim.
In the most beautiful sunshine and perceived temperatures of almost 20 degrees, the train started by Mayor Mike Josef (SPD) with a fireplace shot in front of 111,111 spectators lived up to his motto: “Face and happiness in Klaa Paris has the power.”
Of the ten motif cars, the audience convinced the most those who show Elon Musk and Donald Trump in a very pretty way in a ractic. In addition, the fools “Trump and Musk to Mars/ that's it”. It is not that simple and the foolish polemic tends to reach local politicians. Frankfurt's building and school head Sylvia Weber (SPD) gets her fat away, she throwing the money out the window, while the city does not succeed in keeping rents at socially acceptable heights.
Astonished, a car from a group from Dörnigheim near Hanau, which not only lifted a flag swivel on the tractor shovel over all heads, but also just fit through the narrow streets of the old village center with a height of more than four meters.
While the colorful cars, under which there was also a loan from Düsseldorf this year, are rolling, Ulrich Fergenbauer is already talking about plans for the coming year. So much seems to be clear: Despite all the security and cost discussions, the Frankfurt fools cannot be prevented from celebrating.
