Tips & Advice
- Ride the city bus toward the Kurhaus on an Advent Saturday, when all bus travel in Bad Homburg is free of charge.
- If you drive, head for the Festplatz car park at Heuchelbach Platz, or use Parkhaus Karstadt, which is about a ten-minute walk from the castle.
- Dress for the weather, because the whole market is outdoors and only a few covered areas around the castle give shelter from rain.
- Take the kids to the foot of the White Tower, where a real miniature steam railway runs near the children's carousel.
- Wheelchair users and parents with strollers can reach every exhibition area, but take care over the cable bridges that cross the event grounds.
