Richtfest

…In modern Japan, construction ceremonies are not limited to traditional wooden buildings, but are also widely held for buildings made of reinforced concrete or steel frames, and generally consist of two main ceremonies: the ground-breaking ceremony and the ridgepole-raising ceremony. In modern Germany, a ridgepole-raising ceremony called Richtfest is also widely held for construction of ordinary houses, where the family's life up until the construction of the house is explained in detail.
