The Klettgau costume, figure on the market square fountain in Tiengen

The Klettgau costume is a traditional costume that is still worn today on festive days in Klettgau . On Schwyz Day in 1953, traditional costumes in Tiengen were revived when the Klettgauer Heimattracht group was founded .

It can be seen above all on festive occasions, such as the Schwyz Day, the Waldshuter Chilbi or the Erzinger Wine Festival . On the market square fountain in Tiengen, the figure of a woman wearing traditional costume can be seen in Klettgau. The Klettgau costume is closely related to the Schaffhausen costume and the Hallau costume , which has a small black velvet hood and a black scarf and is still worn today in the canton of Schaffhausen and in the Reiat . There are old illustrations of the costume by Franz Niklaus König and Josef Reinhard . Typical is the splendor of colors, the bodice with colorful silk ribbons and the fur , also mostly banded. The Klettgau men's costume is similar to the Hotzenwald costume .
