Tips & Advice

  • Layer up for time around the historic market square and Rathausstraße, since parts of the market take place outdoors in late November.
  • Wear comfortable shoes for browsing the outdoor areas and moving between the square, Rathausstraße, and Kulturhaus.
  • Allow time to visit both the outdoor locations and the Kulturhaus, as the market is spread across all three settings.
  • Look for the town’s event program when it is published if you want to plan around any scheduled activities.
