Attention horse fans: blessing and celebration at the Zechner Jausenstation!
On December 26, 2024, the Zechner Jausenstation in Framrach will become the centerpiece for horse lovers. The traditional event, known as Stefanirit, begins at 11 a.m. with a ceremonial blessing of the riders and their horses. Each horse receives bread and salt, while the riders are honored with small gifts, such as klick-kaernten.at reported. This event attracts not only riders, but also carriage drivers and spectators, who can enjoy the day together with food and drinks - including the delicious Reindling.
Cultural highlights in Riga
The Stefanirit shows how traditions are kept alive, while at the same time the capital of Latvia, Riga, impresses with its mix of history, tradition and modernity. Riga has a vibrant cultural scene shaped by its turbulent past. The city, which is home to around a third of Latvia's population, presents a variety of fascinating sights, including the neo-Gothic St. Peter's Church and the historic Three Brothers, such as myadventuresacrosstheworld.com describes. The beautiful Art Nouveau buildings from the period of economic growth are also an absolute must for visitors.
Riga not only offers stunning architecture, but also unique experiences such as visiting the Central Market and the many museums that chronicle the various occupations of Latvia during the 20th century. This combination of historical heritage and vibrant urban life makes Riga a fascinating destination for culture and history buffs.
