There was a sausage baked that was 5.88 km (3.65 mi) and 1.7 tons made there. It broke the record on June 27, 1999. It was made by 15 butchers, leading was Bernhard Ossner. To go with it, there was a 1.37 km (0.85 mi) long loaf of bread. Also said to set a record. Spectators had a chance to buy the sausage at the price of five German marks (US$2.65) per meter, with proceeds going to a charity for Romanian children.[citation needed]
