People all over the world celebrate this annual event. From the Netherlands to Japan, from Brazil to the USA, people don their mock dirndls and leather pants once a year. The question is: who started it, and why? Answer: Prince Ludwig (later King Ludwig I) of Bavaria (the grandfather of “Mad” Ludwig II) started it when he threw a wedding party on the occasion of his marriage to Princess Theresia of Saxony-Hildburghausen on October 12, 1810. Ludwig gave an open invitation to the people of Munich, and about 40,000 of them came. The Prince set up tents in a field on the outskirts of Munich, later called ‘Theresienwiese’ (Theresa’s meadow) in honor of his lady. To entertain the crowd he organized a horse race and supplied copious amounts of beer. Everyone had such a good time that they decided to hold the horse race (and beer drinking) again the next year, but this time in conjunction with the state agricultural show. The rest, as they say, is history. The local brewers realized that they could sell a lot of beer in a very short time, the reason why it has become a 16-day extravaganza ending the first Sunday in October. The horse race is no longer a feature, but horses are, mainly to pull the huge beer wagons that the breweries parade through town on opening day on their way to the festival spot.

They are strong beers that were primarily produced in winter for summer drinking. The name came from the Hanseatic league town of Einbeck where it was first brewed. Many myths have it that the name is derived from the German word for goat which is also bock. By 1380, there were 600 breweries in Einbeck producing Bockbier. Later it was exported to Munich and then all over Europe. With the large demand for Bockbier in Munich, the Einbeck brewmeister was virtually kidnapped and brought to Munich with no chance of returning to Einbeck. Bockbiers come in many styles which include the traditional dark known as Dunkelsbock , a Hellesbock which is a pale beer; Maibock , May bock; Weizenbock , wheat bock; and Doppelbock or double bock which is a completely different beer. All Bockbiers fall under the Reinheitsgebot , the German purity law established in 1516 by Dukes Willhelm IV and Ludwig X of Bavaria. This established that beer may be made of only water, malt and hops. Little was known of yeast back then so it was not included in the regulations. Bockbiers generally have a malty character with a caramel and roasted flavor that finishes slightly sweet. Hellesbocks are light in color with a dry finish, almost like a pilsner Maibocks are somewhat darker and have a definite hops taste. Although it is a style on its own, Weizenbock is basically a wheat beer brewed to the strength of a Bockbier. Doppelbock is a product of the Protestant Reformation in Europe. At that time, Catholic monks established monasteries in southern Germany where they brewed strong beers to carry them through the long fasting periods of Lent and Advent. The brew was not fermented as long as other beers so it had a slightly sweet finish. The laws of the Munich Brewer \'s Guild strictly state that new yeast and filtering are required for each brewing of Bockbier which should put to rest the notion that bockbiers are created from the dregs or leftovers of the brewing process. Bockbier is a traditional Bavarian beer that is dark in color and relatively high in alcohol content (as intoxicating carbonated beverages go). Although the Bockbier season varies from country to country, it’s available for a limited time in any region--hence the need for a commemorative celebration. Sacramento’s version includes lively German music by the Sacramento Turner Harmonie, Bavarian folk dancing, German food, coffee cake and Bockbier flowing like the Sacramento River. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the party lasts until midnight.

He in turn inspired Hans Joachim Raschack, known today as the Father of the Library, who followed up on the idea and sparked interest in Franz Bröcker, Alfred Cummings, Günther Laudi, Uli Pelz and others to assist him in cleaning, sorting and evaluating the forgotten remnants of the Turn Verein \'s past. It took three years to make even a dent in the stacks of stored materials. In the meantime, the Sacramento Turn Verein prepared and remodeled the old library room. Günther Laudi in particular was tireless in preserving and displaying the historical materials for future generations. In 2001 the Library became a section of the Sacramento Turn Verein, formally named the German-American Cultural Center - Library. The Library organizes monthy programs to stimulate interest in its projects, and in 2002 launched a quarterly publication, Mitteilungen , which contributes to the section \'s goal to focus the community \'s attention on German culture, literature, language and history.

Hermi Jacobs Cassady, in her book, Heilbron & Bros.: A Sacramento Story offers this description of the conditions under which the Sacramento Turn Verein founders lived and worked: The town was flourishing and consisted of about 500 brick and 2,000 frame buildings. Prior to the gold rush, all the activity had been at Sutter \'s Fort, about two miles distant, but with the discovery of gold, the community had switched to the Embarcadero area along the Sacramento River. After John Sutter \'s son, John Jr., founded the town upon suggestion of Sam Brannan, he employed Captain William H. Warner, a topographical engineer to make a survey in the fall of 1848. Warner produced a simple plan, 31 streets west to east using numbers and 26 streets north to south, each named after a letter in the alphabet. Prior to the first lot sale on the 8th of January 1849, Sutter Jr. deeded 10 squares for public use. At that time, the only residents occupied two cabins near the Embarcadero - one was a saloon and the other had a family named Stewart living there. By August of the same year the city consisted of 300 canvas houses with lot prices ranging from 600 to 20,000. As mining increased, Sacramento became the natural gateway to the northern mines and the town \'s early progress was a direct result of the Gold Rush. Recently the city has gained prominence because it has been designated as the permanent capital of the state of California. From K Street, the Sacramento waterfront, 1849 There was a rather large German contingent in town and what was characteristic of them - they were organizers - and in 1854 had started the Sacramento Turn Verein. The Turners always had some activity going and practically all meetings of any organization were held at their hall. Sacramento was a typical frontier town and the buildings were generally constructed of wood, although bricks were slowly taking precedence because fires were a serious problem. Whether by accident or incendiary, there seemed to be a blaze every day. The November 1852 holocaust had burned most of the town south of J Street below 2nd Street. Another major problem was the location of the town itself. The main streets seemed to be level or even lower than the river and flooding was common. Consequently, the first levees, although inadequate, were constructed along the Sacramento River from Sutterville north to the mouth of the American River, thence east to the high ground for a distance of about two and one half miles. This levee was three feet high, six feet wide at the top, and twelve feet wide at the base; however, this protection proved to be insufficient and a more elaborate system was devised. Sacramento became a town surrounded by levees. The main boulevard was J Street. In 1848, the streets had been laid out like a checkerboard, without any regard to elevation. Sutter \'s Lake, which was later called China Slough, was fed from the river, bordered I Street and the area along it became the Chinese section. The principle businesses were on Front Street (Embarcadero) and J Street. In winter the streets were a muddy mess. Often boards would be laid down so people could work themselves across the roadway and in summer these same thoroughfares would be the exact opposite, so dusty you couldn \'t see over them to the other side! The buildings were usually two stories, the business below with the living quarters upstairs. Many of the buildings had porches in front, which served as verandas for the second story. The world passed by these doors - the unknown, the famous and the infamous alike. The families who lived above these stores had a front-row seat to see it all. Even cattle were brought across the river on the steamer; they too were herded through the streets. In 1857, the third year of the Turn Verein \'s existence, this was Downtown - on J street In 1853, the first major street improvements were made by the planking of Front Street from I to M, J from the river to 12th, K from the river to 8th, and 2nd and 3rd streets from I to K. These boards were from Oregon fir and California pine, 3 and one-half inches thick in random lengths of 28 feet wide on Front Street and 26 feet wide on the other roadways. In 1854, the sidewalk ordinance was passed,specifying a construction of wood, stone, or brick, 14 feet wide on Front Street and 12 feet wide elsewhere. By now Sacramento had its first Water Works, a two-story brick building at Front and I Streets, which also housed the City Hall, Jail and repair space for the Fire Department. Two and a quarter miles of waterline and 50 hydrants had been installed by the end of 1855, at which time the Gas Works was completed at the entrance to Sutter Lake just north of the Water Works. With each new innovation the word frontier was left further behind. Sacramento had come a long way in six short years. Beginning as a city of tents, she had endured many disasters of repeated flooding, fires and epidemics of cholera and small pox, only to be rebuilt bigger and better each time. And she withstood times of civil strife, such as the Squatter \'s Riots of 1850. In 1855, on the 15th of June, the townspeople were quite excited when the schooner Joseph Hewitt arrived with the first rails for the new railroad to Folsom. Next day the schooner, Two Brothers, brought the locomotivesacramento. August Heilbron was one of the many folks who gathered at the wharf to watch the activity of unloading the 400 tons of iron and the engine. When the 15-ton Sacramento was lifted up onto the wharf, a mighty cheer arose from the crowd which could be heard in the middle of town. Many people had truly believed the railroad was only talk, but with evidence like this, they were quite willing to admit their error.

Riemer The Turner movement began just after Napoleon \'s humiliating defeat of the Prussian army in 1806, when Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, its founder born in 1778, started preaching that an independent Germany could result only through the unification of German lands, democratic reforms, and young Germans trained in vigorous physical exercise, patriotic ideals and love of liberty. The movement grew after Jahn in 1811, set up in Berlin a Turnplatz (athletic field), the Hasenheide , where he embarked on the training of young men, both physically and mentally, for the liberation and unification of Germany under a reformed government. Answering the call, 500 young men took part in gymnastic exercises under his direction. Within a few months, Turner societies spread throughout German lands, and Jahn \'s form of gymnastics launched a course of physical training that was to spread throughout 19th century Europe. After the defeat of Napoleon, the Turner movement was associated with the Burschenshaften , student fraternities active in pushing for democratic reforms. Unfortunately for the Turner movement, however, a student fraternity member and Turner, Carl Sand, assassinated the reactionary writer August von Kotzebue in 1819, giving the Friedrich Ludwig Jahn (Turnvater Jahn) German government the pretext for outlawing Turners. Thus, Jahn spent the next 20 years under police surveillance, although Turner activities, becoming even more popular, continued underground until 1842, when the restrictions were lifted. The movement grew rapidly, with Turner competitions with Turner competitions becoming a means of organizing for Democratic reforms. Jahn \'s nationalistic spirit contributed to his role as a promoter pf patriotic gymnastics, recognized as a strong force in Prussia \'s liberation. The gymnastic exercises that he introduced were intended to infuse his students with a patriotic love of freedom that would make them capable of bearing arms for their country, in the name of war of liberation. When the 1848 revolution broke out, the Turners divided into two camps: The conservative camp, favoring a constitutional monarchy as well as athletic and social programs, formed by the Deutscher Turnerbund . In the same year the more radical Turner formed the Demokratischer Turnerbund , under Friedrich Hecker and Gustave Struve These Turners fought alongside the democratic forces in Baden. Many members of the Demokratischer Turnerbund , after failure of the 1848 Revolution, went into exile, largely in the United States. The movement in Germany came under the influence of conservatives and the Deutscher Turnerbund became the leading athletic organization in the country. The German Turnerschaft , an umbrella organization for for almost all Turn Vereine in Germany and Austria, was founded in Coburg, in 1860. In 1895, the Turnerschaft had a presence among 5312 clubs, with 529,925 members. The official publication was the Deutsche Turnzeitung , founded in Leipzig, in 1856. After the failure of the 1848 uprising, the Germans who emigrated to the United States, called the Forty-Eighters, carried with them the Turn Verein culture. One of the Four F designs Illustrating the Turner \'s slogan, Frisch, Fromm, Fröhlich, Frei . In the United States, Turners changed their slogan to FFST, Frisch und Frei, Stark und Treu. It is not entirely clear as to where the first Turn Verein was established in the United States. The Cincinnati Turn Verein, organized in 1848, may have been the first. By 1855, 74 societies had been formed, with about 4500 members. By 1860 there were perhaps 10,000 American Turners. Between 1847 and 1857, about one million Germans emigrated to the United States. The leadership during this period consisted of many former journalists, teachers and other professionals educated in Germany. In the 1850 \'s, the Turners opposed the pro-slavery elements in America and showed themselves committed to equality and liberty. They came into conflict with anti-German gangs and even became the center of anti-German riots in Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Columbus, Covington and Hoboken. They followed the teachings of Vater Jahn \' not simply for the joy of physical activity, but rather as a means of defending the principles of liberty and equality and thus they were found serving at times as security personnel for their political allies. It was the American Civil War, however, that brought Turners into a position of prominence. Throughout the Unites States, Turners were among the first to volunteer for military service. More than two-thirds of American Turners served in the Union Army, with many earning distinguished service records. The Forty-Eighters, who had received military training in Germany and become active in the American Turner movement, led troops that had a reputation for discipline and courage. Turner companies from Chicago and Washington served as bodyguards for President Lincoln at his first Inauguration. The Turners \' devotion to gymnastics as a road to an active and productive life became even stronger after the Civil War. Besides offering gymnastic opportunities for young men, the programs were expanded to young boys and girls, older men (known as Bären , or Bears) and adult women. By the start of the twentieth century, the athletic competitions called Turnfests were turning into grand social events, with receptions, musical and theatrical performances and parades. In the mid-1880 \'s, the Turners \' facilities and membership numbers soared. In 1880 the national membership was about 13,000 and spread over 186 societies. Over the next decade the Turnerbund more than tripled in size, reaching its high point of 42,000 in 1893. Most of the growth came in the late 1880 \'s and early 1890 \'s, when more than 300 Turn Vereine in America were associated with the American Turnerbund. Despite the Turners \' strong support for the American military effort during World War I, they were put under extreme pressure by anti-German propaganda, with many Turner societies coming under surveillance by by local, state and federal authorities. Despite the war hysteria, however, the American Turners came through the war intact. Membership dropped only slightly from pre-war levels (39,000 in 1917 to 34,000 in 1920). Der Sieger (the Victor), depicting the last Turnfest, in Köln in 1928, before Hitler banned such events As the Turn Verein membership gradually assimilated, the use of the English language increased. The newspaper, Amerikanische Turnzeitung published convention proceedings in German well into the 1930 \'s, but after 1921 also produced an English version. Some societies began publishing in English even before World War I. It is easy to conclude that the most difficult times for the American Turners were World War I and its aftermath. Rather, it was the depression period between 1929 and 1944 that Turners lost more than one-third of their membership and societies. Then with the Nazi rise to power in Germany, anti-German tensions returned. In 1938, the American Turnerbund changed its name to the American Turners. During the 1940 \'s and 1950 \'s the membership improved, rising to 25,000 in 1950. The society placed a number of Turner-trained gymnasts on the 1956 U.S. Olympic team. But by the 1960 \'s a decline was clear and by the early 1990 \'s, the total membership in the United States was down to about 13,000 in 60 societies.
