Tips & Advice

  • Use the free public parking less than 200 metres from the market; a paying car park is just as close, and motorhomes and coaches park free.
  • Visit on an Advent weekend to catch the activities planned for friends and families, since the full program is still to be announced.
  • Stop by on a Friday evening to start the weekend among the wooden chalets at the foot of the illuminated abbey church.
  • Bring your gift list, because the chalets are filled with local artisans' handmade creations that suit end-of-year presents.
  • Dress warmly for an evening outdoors, and ask ahead before bringing your dog, as animals are only accepted under certain conditions.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Activities for friends and families on the weekends of Advent; the full program is still to come.
