Oktoberfest
I’m gonna talk about history of Oktoberfest in 19th century Germany. Originally, Oktoberfest was the celebration festival for starting new season’s beer. But, it stopped October 12th in 1810 and 1813 because of the Napoleonic Wars. And a parade started in 1835 for the 25th anniversary of marriage for Ludwig the first. And in 1850, the statue called Bavalle was built in the hall of the Oktoberfest. And Oktoberfest also stopped in 1873 because of a contagious disease. Later, in 1881, the first sausage ever sold was called Brat Wurst.
