Celebratory event of the Bilker Schützen Festivities
The Bilker Schützenvereinigung, a long-standing tradition in Düsseldorf, is gearing up for a new season with some exciting changes.
Martin Kramp, a staunch supporter of the Schützen tradition since 1972, has once again taken centre stage. This year marks the 20th time Kramp has led his battalion in the annual parade. In a recent development, Kramp has been crowned the new Regiments-König, a prestigious title within the Schützenvereinigung.
Kramp, who took on the role of Major in 1999, has always believed that being a Schütze means helping others. His dedication to the club and its values is evident in his long-standing service.
Meanwhile, the Bilker Schützen club has forged a close relationship with Dominik Langerbeins and Laura Breuer. For Langerbeins and Breuer, the club is more than just a tradition; it's like a family. They are heavily involved in the club's activities and are encouraging young people to join.
In a unique move, the fifth season of the Bilker Schützen will see the club sharing its premises with some Karnevalists. The theme for this season is "Schützen meets Karneval", a fusion of two Düsseldorf traditions. However, it's not yet clear what specific activities will be shared between the two groups.
Langerbeins and Breuer were recently crowned the new Regiments-Jungschützenkönigspaar. They are known for their commitment to preserving heritage and traditions, and for exploring new paths, much like Wolfgang Rolshoven, who was recently presented with the Jakob Faasen Plaque for his contributions to the Schützenvereinigung.
The current Regiments-King of the Bilker Schützenvereinigung since 1999 is not Jens Linka, who became the new Regiments-King in 2025. The specific name of the Regiments-King holding the position continuously since 1999 is not found in the search results.
Ulrich Müller, the 1. Chef of the St. Sebastianus Schützenverein Düsseldorf Bilk, oversees the club's operations. Despite the changes, the club remains committed to maintaining its rich traditions while welcoming new members and collaborations.
As the fifth season approaches, the Bilker Schützenvereinigung is looking forward to a year of camaraderie, tradition, and innovation.
