Carnival Guards arose as a parody of the military. They came up with the resurgence of the street carnival in the 1820s and 1830s. However, the guardsmen of the Heimerzheim Honor Guard needed about 150 years longer to appear for the first time in carnival. Uniforms and organization are based on historical models, usually from the 17th to the 19th century.
The guardsmen are the most active members in the honorary circle Heimerzheim. They wear the traditional uniform in our club colors at all official events and appointments in their capacity as representatives of the Honor Guard Heimerzheim.
During the session, the guards perform numerous performances at friendly clubs, sponsors or administrations. Their task consists among other things in the accompaniment and support of Heimerzheimer Tollitäten.
