Dance in May: Herne celebrates with hits and spring -like temperatures!

On May 1, 2025, the mild spring temperatures attracted many guests to the outdoor areas of the events in Herne. The celebrated "dance in May" was particularly remarkable on the evening of April 30th. This tradition, which is deeply rooted in historical folk beliefs, attracts numerous celebrations every year.

The origins of the "Dance in May" can be traced back to old legends. A well -known story says that witches gather on the chunk in the Harz and dance around a big fire on brooms or pitch forks. They celebrate with the devil, which leads to a comparable myth that remains alive to this day. Even if no traditional witch brooms or pitch forks were sighted at the modern celebrations in Herne, the festivities were an occasion for happy get -together with friends and family.

witch sagas and their roots

They celebrated in Herne did not happen without reference to the deeply rooted legends of the Harz. The narrative from Lügenstein to Halberstadt illustrates how mythical stories have woven into culture. In this legend, the devil thinks that a tavern is being built later sees later that the impressive Halberstadt cathedral is created, which he tries to destroy. But people find a clever way to prevent it from keeping it to a legendary stone that symbolizes the deadlines of humans.

In addition, the legend of Iwa and the forest spirit tells how people should live in harmony with nature. Iwa, the greedy character of this story, damages a boar tree and is punished by a forest spirit that occupies the berries with a curse. Such legends are deeply rooted in collective memory and reflect the respect of people from nature.
