Wermsdorf is looking for the next fish queen: apply now until July 15th!

A new fish queen is currently being sought in Wermsdorf, and time is running out! Interested young women between the ages of 18 and 39 only have until July 15th to apply for this special position. The next Saxon and Wermsdorf fish queen will represent the region for two years and will be actively involved in the marketing of the products of the Wermsdorf pond industry, especially in the popular Horstsee fishing, which takes place in October. Loud LVZ Reigning Fish Queen Charlotte Opitz encourages applicants to come forward and take advantage of the numerous opportunities associated with this election.

The new fish queen is used not only on official occasions, but also at the opening of the carp season in September and the Green Week in Berlin in January. The prerequisites are a car driving license and basic knowledge of Saxon fish farming and pond management. The jury that selects the new queen consists of representatives from the community and the association.

The tasks of the fish queen

What tasks await the new fish queen? In addition to representing the Saxon fishing industry and taking part in various events, it also includes answering questions and providing information. The role requires commitment and connection to the Wermsdorf region, like wermsdorf.de emphasized. The reigning Queen Julia I, who was crowned in September 2019, carried out her tasks as a social security clerk and comes from Malkwitz with a lot of joy and passion.

Applications can be made either by email to the state fishing association or directly to the municipality of Wermsdorf. If you would like to put the crown on yourself, you can contact the Wermsdorf tourist information center in the Old Hunting Lodge directly. The current application deadline runs until July 15th and therefore offers a little time to think about the application.

Fishy traditions and events

The meaning of the fish queen extends not only to Wermsdorf, but is also part of a broader tradition in the region. In this context, we can also take a look at the hut magic in Dresden, in which Sandra Gössel, the current fish queen, plays an important role. Together with Nico Thierbach, the managing director of Dresdner Hütten-Zauber, she sources fresh fish from the Moritzburg pond farm. This is known for its high-quality carp and trout production, which gives the Advent spectacle a special culinary touch Sächsische.de reported.

The Moritzburg pond farm is of great importance for numerous facilities in the surrounding area. Around 150 tons of fish are produced there every year, which has a positive impact on local gastronomy. This all shows how important regional fishing is for the region, while at the same time supporting awareness of sustainable and regional products.

So if you want to experience the special feeling of being part of this tradition, you should take advantage of the opportunity and apply by July 15th. The future fish queen could soon wear the “crown” on the stages of the Wermsdorf ponds!
