Overview
Intro
Traditional parade
Traditional parade
Every Kilbi Saturday, dozens of "Woldmanndli" (little forest men) parade down from the Gurschenwald forest to Andermatt, accompanied by the booming clang of their pianos and the tooting of their goat horns. The custom lives from the simple spectacle, but also from the charm of a historical interpretation that explains the noisy hustle and bustle with the careful care of the nearby Bannwald forest since 1397. According to the ladder census, the Woldmanndli represent the workers and day laborers who used to look after the small Gurschenwald forest, which was so important for avalanche protection, for the benefit of the village community and to protect it from illegal logging. In recent years, the custom has experienced a visible revival.
From 8 pm, music and dancing in various restaurants.
