Association of Upper Rhine fools' guilds

The Association of Upper Rhine Fools Guilds (VON) is an association of fools guilds of the Swabian-Alemannic Carnival in Baden and is the second oldest association of fools guilds after the VSAN . It was founded in 1937 in the harmonies halls in Freiburg . From 1948 to 1954 it was called the Association of Baden Fools' Guilds .

Structure and activities

The membership is - like the carnival tradition in the area of ​​distribution - diverse and ranges from small village fools' guilds with a single group of rabbits to urban umbrella organizations such as in Emmendingen, Freiburg, Rheinfelden, Hauingen. Schopfheim, Todtnau, Wehr, Weil or Zell im Wiesental, which in turn include many groups of fools and "cliques".

The association is organized in the form of a registered association . The managing director (Narrenmeiser) is Klaus-Peter Klein from Weil am Rhein.

The association divides its distribution area into six "bailiwicks":

• Ortenau
• Northern Breisgau / Elztal
• Freiburg
• Middle and Southern Breisgau
• High Black Forest Albgau
• Dreiländereck (corresponds roughly to the district of Lörrach ).

The bailiffs and the general association hold regular meetings for fools. The association magazine Oberrheinischer Narrenspiegel appears twice a year.

The association runs the Carnival Museum Oberrheinische Narrenschau in Kenzingen , which opened in 1976 .
