Casselfest
==========

- Exhibition
- Celebration
- Church service
- Gastronomy

 Every second Sunday in August, we celebrate the traditional Casselfest in front of Villa Cassel. On this day, our doors are open to locals and vacationers alike.

The tradition lives on

The festival’s tradition dates back to the builder of Villa Cassel, Sir Ernest Cassel. He always sought to foster friendly relations with the local community and invited them once a year in August to Villa Cassel for food, drink, and dancing.
