Stiftungsfest
Stiftungsfest is a "Founder's Day" celebration held in Norwood Young America, Minnesota, United States, on the last full weekend of August every year. The first Stiftungsfest was held in 1861.[1] It is Minnesota's oldest celebration.
The Stiftungsfest highlights the German heritage of the city. It features old-time and polka bands from across the United States and Germany as well as ethnic food.[2]
The celebration went on hiatus in 1917–18, 1942–45, and 2020.
