Self-guided podcast tour Neuss: The uniformed society

About this activity

To the untrained eye, the Neuss Civic Riflemen's Festival looks like a carnival of men in green jackets. But look closer. Accompany a skeptical sociologist and a passionate local expert as they peel back the layers of this 7,700-strong parade to reveal a strictly regulated parallel society. Discover how uniforms blur class lines while simultaneously creating new, strict hierarchies, how a local pub serves as an important social safety net, and how the city's power structure is renegotiated every August. This is not just a festival; it is the hidden architecture of German civic identity.
