Maybe some of you already wondered about the big group of young guys on the churchyard in front of the cathedral. Some may even think of a demonstration. This is not the case.

It is the last day of high school for the oldest pupils of all school around Münster. The last week of school, pupils dress up every day in a new way. Then, on Friday, they barricade their schools, whistle that you can hear it all over the town and celebrate a big party in the auditories of their schools.

Afterwards, all high school graduates walk in a big procedure to the yard of the cathedral. So, their shoutings actually do not mean something like "Free Tibet". Their favourite chorus is "Never ever school again!"
