Solemn sounds: Nievern celebrates 750 years with a big music festival!

On January 13, 2025, the local community Nievern celebrated a remarkable anniversary: 750 years. The event that was expected with great anticipation took place in the fully occupied sports hall and attracted numerous visitors. According to Rhein-Zeitung there was a great interest: " said Mayor Lutz Zaun delighted the high number of visitors.

The start of the anniversary year began the previous day, January 12, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. The program was fully booked right from the start and offered a musical experience of a special kind. Musical highlights from many decades were presented, including appearances by Kay Gutjahrs "Lahnsin (n) Fonie" and the ensemble "Septime" of the Chores Musica Miellahno. The event focused on entertaining music instead of long speeches, which caused a relaxed atmosphere.

a festival of music and conviviality

The guests had access to the hall from 3 p.m., where they were greeted with a glass of Secco or sparkling wine. During the event, a break caused convivial moments at which a standing reception with refreshing drinks and snacks from the Walldorf bakery was offered. Among the delicacies was the "Nieverner Jubilee wine", which was created especially for this occasion.

In order to ensure a smooth process, it was pointed out that admission was only possible with tickets issued in advance. In addition, visitors who could not use their cards had to return this to the local community by January 11, 2025 at 12:00 p.m.

logistical challenges

Since the parking facilities at the Nieverner sports hall were limited, the Nievern volunteer fire brigade took over the allocation of the parking spaces. It was recommended to form mobile communities and to use alternative parking spaces, such as on the Lahn or in Mittelstraße. These logistical measures contributed to the fact that the anniversary party went smoothly and all guests could enjoy the celebrations carefree.

The celebrations of the anniversary year are only the beginning of an extensive program that the municipality of Nievern has planned. With a clear focus on music and community, various events will take place in the coming months that will highlight the history and culture of the place. The event last weekend was a promising start to a year full of celebrations. Further information on the planned events can be found on the municipality's website, where the next dates and activities are also announced.
