"Siegsdorf's 'Zamkema': Over 2000 enjoy a car-free main street"
In the heart of Siegsdorf, Germany, the annual family-friendly event, "Zamkema," recently took place, offering a variety of activities and attractions for locals and visitors alike. Despite a heavy rain shower and a severe thunderstorm, around 2,000 people braved the weather to participate in the festivities.
The main street was transformed into a car-free zone, allowing for a safe and enjoyable environment for all attendees. Local clubs, businesses, and the tourism office collaborated to organise the event, ensuring a diverse range of offerings between the Traun bridge and Blue Wall Street.
The Kreissparkasse, Siegsdorf's local savings bank, hosted an open day with games and face painting, while the DLRG (German Life-Saving Association) presented its equipment and a bouncy castle on the other side of the bridge. Children found a warm and dry space by the campfire in the museum garden, providing a cosy retreat from the inclement weather.
Prior to the event, the library hosted a book flea market, offering a chance for bookworms to browse and purchase a variety of titles. The specifics of the event's passes, such as cost, restrictions, conditions, additional benefits, and whether they are available for purchase online or on-site, were not specified.
For those seeking more dance-oriented activities, Siegsdorf will host a Salsa Dance Night on August 9, 2025, at Papillon, featuring DJs Jhonny and Latino Mio with salsa, bachata, and kizomba music. This event is primarily for adults, but could be an enjoyable evening for families with older children who appreciate dance.
In addition to the town's offerings, nearby locations like Prien am Chiemsee and Inzell provide further family-friendly activities. Prien am Chiemsee offers the "Awesome Scavenger Hunt," while Inzell boasts the Badepark Inzell, an amusement park suitable for families.
