The carnival season has different names in germany: in Cologne and Duesseldorf `Karneval`, in Mainz `Fasenacht`, in other regions `Fasnet` or `Fosnat`. The carnival season in and around Munich is named `Fasching`. Carnival was originally a pagan festival, later it has become associated with the catholic church and was celebrated on the day before the beginning of Lent. Nowadays the carnival season begins officially on November 11 with the coronation of a carnival prince and a carnival princess and lasts about three months until Ash Wednesday seven weeks before Easter. The most Fasching events are held in the last four weeks.
