3 / 13Prime Minister Markus Söder and his wife Karin Baumüller-Söder will of course be on site at the “Fastnacht in Franconia”.
The CSU leader disguised himself as Reich Chancellor Otto von Bismarck.
“Many called him the honest broker of Europe.
And as Franz Josef Strauss himself said: Sometimes Bayern have to be the last Prussians,” he wrote about his outfit on Instagram.

7 / 13Martin Huber, CSU General Secretary, is also at the start in Veitshöchheim: Based on the series “Wednesday”, Huber presented himself as “Uncle Fester” in a long black coat - one hand was draped on his shoulder.
His wife wore long black braids and a dark dress.
It was very important to him and his wife to be able to appear as a couple at carnival, he explained the coordinated choice of costumes.
However, because of the elaborate disguise, she was finished faster than him on Friday: “Strangely enough, the woman did it quicker than the man,” he said with a smile.
