Roman Festivals

Germany is known for its over-the-top festivals and celebrations. This includes their iconic Swords, Bread, and Games festival, which is essentially the world’s largest Roman celebration. This festival takes place every second year in a town called Xanten, famous for its rich Roman history. Strangely enough, the festival is used to symbolize the taking and stealing from commoners. With that being said, the festival is still incredibly fun, with a number of games and competitions on offer.

The festival takes place over an entire week, attracting tourists and locals from far and wide. It is certainly something that must be seen to be believed.
