About
The Martinsfeuer marks St. Martin's Day with a big bonfire, warm drinks and the story of the soldier who cut his cloak in half for a freezing beggar. Here, kids from the Günthersburg adventure playground tell that story as a shadow play, a church brass choir plays, and little ones ride a kids' carousel. The organizers call it Frankfurt's biggest Martinsfeuer, now in its 30th year.
