Summary edit
| Description |
English: Kurents are demons chasing winter away and calling spring to the country; https://www.ptuj.info/en/see-do/culture-heritage/sightseeing/kurent-2/. In small groups, they would visit not only houses in their own village but also in neighbouring ones, from Shrove Sunday to Ash Wednesday. On the photo they dance and jump, large bells tied at the waist ring loudly and the Kurents come from the smallest town of Ptuj in Slovenia, European Union.
Deutsch: Laut einer alten Legende ist "Kurent" ein Dämon, der den Winter verjagt und den Frühling ins Land lockt. In kleinen Gruppen besuchen sie von Mariä Lichtmess am 2. Februar bis Aschermittwoch nicht nur Häuser im heimischen, sondern auch benachbarte Dörfer in Ptuj, der kleinsten Stadt in Slowenien. Ihr Besuch bedeutete Glück für das kommende Jahr.
