About Sankt Georgen
St. Georgen im Schwarzwald is a small town in the Schwarzwald-Baar district of Baden-Württemberg that grew up around a Benedictine monastery. It has no Pride event of its own. People from the area who want to join a Pride march look to the neighbouring districts.
The closest one is Tuttlingen Pride. The idea came from people around the local initiative „Tuttlingen ist bunt“, and it is run by a group of committed residents. The march starts at the Marktplatz and moves through the town centre in summer.
Further south, in the Waldshut district, the association Bunte Huufä e. V. organises Pride in Wutöschingen. The group works for LGBTQIA+ visibility, human rights and democratic life in rural areas. Outside of Pride it hosts a rainbow get-together on the first Thursday of every month.
For queer young people from the St. Georgen area, the nearest regular meeting point is the queer youth group in Schiltach. It meets every Monday at the Schiltach youth centre, where the group cooks, plays games, talks and supports each other. Counselling on coming out, identity or discrimination is available through the online service of the Queer Network of Baden-Württemberg, which can be reached by email, chat, video call or phone, in German, English, Russian and Turkish.
The Queer Network of Baden-Württemberg also keeps a statewide calendar of Pride events and awareness days, along with a directory of groups and counselling services. The Black Forest has its own section there, so new local offers from the Schwarzwald-Baar district show up in that list once they are registered.
