Oberegg cattle show

To the delight of the numerous spectators lining the village and Feldlistrasse, a few farmers drive to the show in the traditional Sennisch style, i.e. in the tried and tested order of the Alpabzug and in the appropriate traditional costume of yellow pants with a red breast cloth or the extra-Rhoden workday costume. Everyone enters the area under a wooden triumphal arch decorated with fir trigs, flowers and ribbons. A special feature of Oberegg is that many cows wear elaborately designed headdresses with flowers. The cattle show is also accompanied by music and commentary.

The cattle are tied to long poles according to predetermined categories. The judging panel, consisting of experienced farmers, now begins its work. They judge the animals according to beauty and performance and rank them in the correct order. The most beautiful animals are decorated with a wreath of paper flowers. Young breeders are also allowed to take part in many shows and exhibit their goats.
