Tips & Advice

  • Visit the Divano for the book and handicraft market, and note that it closes at 16:00 on Sunday while the main market continues.
  • If you want a Christmas tree, look for the sale left of the Bürgernetz booth; only 25 trees are offered during market hours.
  • Plan pony rides for Saturday between 16:00 and 20:00, as this children's activity is available only during that window.
  • Bring children by on Sunday between 16:00 and 18:00 to catch St. Nicholas during his scheduled visit.
  • Do not expect a flea market: the event page specifically says that no flea market is held.
