In Remich, there is a unique Ash Wednesday tradition where the end of the carnival is marked by burning the Stréimännchen. This straw figure is carried in a dancing procession through the streets of the town to the Moselle bridge. Upon arrival at the bridge, the Stréimännchen is set on fire and thrown into the river. Traditionally, mulled wine, fried fish, and potato pancakes are also served.
