On Saturday, 266 craftsmen from 19 different trades celebrated an important milestone in the Danube Hall in Donaueschingen - the awarding of their master's letters. Mayor Erik Pauly opened the event with the words: "The future is now open to them." The festive atmosphere was supported by the musical trio Steffi-Flaig from Villingen, which contributed to the celebration.

Werner Rottler, the President of the Chamber of Crafts, emphasized in his speech how important it was for the new masters to develop a solid foundation in order to implement their dreams and ideas into reality. Georg Hiltner, General Manager of the Chamber of Crafts Constance, emphasized that even in challenging times the craft has a promising future. It is the goal of the educational institutions to continuously improve training and further education.

award of the masters and challenges in craft

This year a total of 350 craftsmen at the Konstanz Chamber of Crafts achieved their championship title. Mayor Pauly joked how many people are happy today to see a craftsman at all. "I'm standing here in front of an entire hall," he said. This statement underlines appreciation for the craft professions in the region.

The motivation and perseverance with which future champions have learned for their title was particularly praised. Rottler explained that the master's certificate for quality and expertise that customers can trust. An example of this is Marc Single, a 34-year-old career from Spaichingen, who founded his own carpentry. He describes the championship title as a milestone that requires a lot of commitment and appropriation of knowledge. "Master art means quality," he said, adding that some customers are not yet willing to pay for the expertise.

responsibility to pass on knowledge

The best champions of 2024 were particularly appreciated. According to Rottler, the standards in the craft are high, and he encouraged the new masters to pass on their knowledge to the next generation. "They also inspire young people for the craft," he called to them. The President of the Central Association of German Crafts, Jörg Dittrich, also took positive balance in a video message from Berlin and expressed his congratulations to the new masters. He firmly believes that you can master the upcoming challenges and thanked you for your optimism and your confidence for the future.

This solemn ceremony not only shows the success of the new masters, but also the endeavor to further develop the craft professions. The master's certificate opens doors to many possibilities, be it the establishment of a company's own company or taking on an existing company. A new way begins, which is characterized by professional competence and personal commitment. More details on this topic can be found in a detailed report on www.wochenblatt-news.de .
