carnival as a cultural phenomenon

The carnival represents a deeply rooted tradition that is celebrated in many Christian countries. This "fifth season" is characterized by a variety of customs that take place before Lent, which begins on Ash Wednesday. In Germany, this time is called different depending on the region: carnival, carnival or carnival. The festivities begin on November 11th at 11:11 a.m. and reach their climax on Weiberfastnacht and Rosenmontag, as Paradisi describes.

Special features of the carnival are the extensive removals that take place in many cities such as Cologne, Mainz and Düsseldorf. While large fixed removals with more than one million visitors are expected in Cologne, the street festivals and social gatherings are more concise in southern Germany.

Overall, the carnival not only reflects happiness and conviviality, but also deeper cultural and historical roots that promote community and traditions.
