About
On Laetare Sunday (three weeks before Easter), the Thurgovian village of Ermatingen celebrates its Groppenfasnacht, or fish carnival. The carnival gets its name from the Gropp, a small fish of 10-15 cm in length found only in this region. In earlier times, when the local lake froze, fishermen celebrated the breaking of the ice and return to their livelihoods with this special celebration.
