Traditional carnival costumes
The most diverse characters are on the road at Fasnacht. Some of the costumes originate from Italian tradition, while others are based on local conditions.
At the Basler Fasnacht, it is necessary to go into absolute anonymity as a carnival figure masked from head to toe. No one is to be recognized under his "larva", the still today in artful handicraft designed face mask.
DIY face masks
So why not make a mask yourself? In this video you will be shown how to make a typical Basel "larva" itself! You will be shown and explained exactly which materials you need and how to properly conceal.
