The Bernemer Kerb, originally the Bornheimer Kirchweihfest, is one of the oldest and most traditional Frankfurt festivals and has been celebrated in summer since 1608.
The Kerb takes place on the weekend of the second Sunday in August on the fairground at the Bornheimer Johanniskirche, which is also popularly known as the "Zwiwwelkerch" (onion church) due to the shape of its bell tower.
Live music, Frankfurt specialties and convivial get-togethers are held along the upper Bergerstrasse throughout the festival. After the Kerb is rung in on Friday in Bornheim's restaurants, the people of Bornheim fetch the Kerwe tree from the Enkheim forest on Saturday and erect it on the festival site. Afterwards, the big parade through the streets of Bornheim takes place and the Kerb is ceremoniously opened.
