International Community Day Mittelfranken

Global roots. Local home.

Mittelfranken is international. And it has been for a long time. People from all over the world live here, work here, start families and build their lives. They have consciously chosen Mittelfranken – as a place to live, to work, and to call home. International Community Day Mittelfranken brings these people together. For one day. On eye level. With space for encounters, exchange and real connections.
