Know Before You Go

  • Hours: 11:00 - 19:00 Uhr.
  • Parking: The museum grounds’ parking lots are typically full shortly after the event begins. On both days, a free bus service runs from Diesdorf town center to the museum and back on two routes. Coach parking is reserved at the station grounds and the sports field. The usual coach parking lot by the elementary school is unavailable that weekend; coach operators are asked to contact the museum in advance.

Tips & Advice

  • Park in Diesdorf town center and take the free shuttle bus, because the car parks at the museum usually fill shortly after the market opens.
  • Coach operators should contact the museum in advance, because the usual coach park at the elementary school is closed that weekend.
  • Coaches should use the reserved spaces at the station grounds or the sports field, both set aside for tour buses during the market weekend.
  • Dress warmly and wear sturdy shoes for a December day outdoors on the open-air museum grounds, moving between the stalls and the historic parlors.
  • Allow time for the accompanying program as well as the stalls, so you can see both the crafted goods and the decorated historic parlors.
