30th Anniversary 2006

To mark the thirtieth anniversary of the twinning link between the two cities, Derby hosted a weekend of events from 24 to 27 February 2006. The then Oberbürgermeister Hans Jürgen Fip (Lord Mayor of Osnabrück) visited Derby with a small civic delegation. Whilst in Derby, he attended the Mayor's Ball at the Assembly Rooms, where he was joined by some of the 57 former Derby and Osnabrück Envoys. The weekend also included the unveiling of two bronze information panels on Osnabrück Square to which representatives of local clubs and organisations involved in twinning were also invited. Lord Mayor Fip also presented Derby with some books on Osnabrück, which are held in the Central Library on The Wardwick and Derby Brewing Company launched a limited edition bottled beer aptly called "Oberbürgermeister".
