Tips & Advice

  • Take the U2 to Osterstraße, Lutterothstraße or Emilienstraße and walk five to ten minutes, or ride bus 4, which stops right in front of the church.
  • Plan your visit around the music program, because choirs, songwriters and cover acts play only on certain evenings from late November to mid-December.
  • Vegetarians and vegans have plenty to choose from, including vegetarian and vegan baked potatoes and the vegan butcher next to the sausage stall.
  • Email the market early about a company Christmas party, which includes stall food and mulled wine, plus a Christmas tree for each employee on request.
  • On Totensonntag, November 22, the market opens later than usual and keeps shorter hours, so plan an evening visit that day.
