Facts and practical information
Furth im Wald is a town in Bavaria, Germany, near the Czech border in the Bavarian Forest, 16 kilometres northeast of Cham, and 17 kilometres southwest of Domažlice. The city is known as Drachenstadt, a reference to Furth im Wald's annual Drachenstich play. The Drachenstich, originally part of a Corpus Christi procession, was first mentioned in 1590. As one of the oldest folk plays in the German language, each year actors re-enact the legend of Saint George slaying the dragon. In 2010, the play became notable for using the world's largest walking robot, an animatronic dragon called Tradinno. ()
