Operetta Festival Zeltingen-Rachtig

Every two years, the wine town of Zeltingen-Rachtig invites you to an operetta which is performed by the citizens of Zeltingen-Rachtig with a good portion of mother wit, humour and self-irony. Since 1980, the open-air theatre has stood on the market square of Zeltingen, which is also the place of story. Wine also plays the leading role in the operetta. The year is 1780, and the winegrowers in the Oberamt Zeltingen-Rachtig in Churcöln are coveting against their sovereign, the Elector of Cologne. They no longer want to pay the tithe, which has to be produced annually in the form of wine from the outstanding vineyards "Zeltinger Himmelreich, Schloßberg, Sonnenuhr and Deutschherrenberg".

6 performances of the popular Moseloperette are scheduled for summer 2019. And that on 19.7., 20.7., 23.7., 24.7., 26.07. and 27.07., in each case from 21.00 o'clock.
