About the rite
On 5 September 2025, Rheinfelden invited residents born in 2007 to its Jungbürger-Feier, and eighteen attended. After a town-hall tower tour and informal reception, the mayor explained their new adult rights and duties with practical examples.
The young adults introduced themselves and spoke about their plans before receiving personal certificates and gifts from the city. The ceremony welcomes citizens who have reached legal adulthood; it does not itself create that status.
