  • On 6th of november, Leonardiritt takes place in Bad Toelz. Lots of decorated horses and people are going to a little church up on a hill, where a mess is celebrated. What a nice noise in the little town caused by the little bells which are ringing on the horse.
    And what a fun watching the women and men in their traditional clothes.

  • have a look at these men: Their hat have a so called Gamsbart. And what do they have in their hands: of course, a bottle of beer. We were so much surprised. During the celebration of the mess, the horses and their owners and the people sitting on the vehicles which the horses draw were waiting on a big big field. It was foggy and a bit cold. So the men were drinking beer, and the women on the vehicles had also bottles; - no - it wasn't tea or coffee, they had liqueurs and other alcoholic drinks.

  • And later, when the mess was finished and the parade went back to town, the women and men were sitting on the vehicles and praying.
    Ooops, I almost forgot to show you a decorated horse. the first pic I took from a horse's back, lol, but I think it was worth.
