Mögging Castle Festival
26. June – 27. June
In the last weekend of June 2026, the castle courtyard of the moated castle in Möggingen will once again shine as the stage for the castle festival, taking up the legendary open-air performances of the post-war period, the glittering highlight of which was the production for the 1200th anniversary celebrations in 1960. This tradition experienced a lively rebirth with the “Indian Princess” for Möggingen’s 1250th anniversary in 2010 and the “Living Chess Spectacle” in 2017.
Among other things, this year’s play sheds light on the quartering of French officers in the castle, the involvement of individual residents of Mögging in the National Socialist movement, interpersonal conflicts during the occupation and the persistence of right-wing extremist ideas to the present day.
