Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Winterdorf different from a Christmas market?

It's much smaller and calmer, with no Christmas music or craft stalls. It's all about sitting together, with lots of seating, cozy corners and small cultural acts around the village.

What is there to drink?

There's berry mulled wine from the Findorffer Weinladen, plus white, blueberry, rosé and cherry mulled wine. There's also hot chocolate, Feuerzangenbowle and hot cocktails. Without alcohol, you can get kids' punch, cranberry punch, alcohol-free hot cocktails and everything from beer to cola.

What is there to eat?

The 'Bahnhof' serves crêpes, bratwurst, Handbrot, soups and more, including vegan options. The Handbrot and many other treats come from Café Ihretwegen.

Can we reserve a table?

Seating is limited, so reservations are only taken for larger groups, by email.

Is it open when it rains?

Yes, every day. Lots of covered spots keep you fairly dry, but in heavy rain the village may close early once no guests are left.
