Tips & Advice
- Arrive early on Saturday to experience the market at its liveliest before the evening crowds.
- Bring cash for purchases from the market stalls, as not all vendors may accept card payments.
- Check the weather forecast and dress warmly in layers, as the market is held outdoors.
- Consider visiting on Sunday for a potentially more relaxed atmosphere, though Santa may have fewer hours.
- Look for the 'Duftender Weihnachtsstern aus Kräuterholz' (fragrant Christmas star made of herb wood) for a unique, aromatic souvenir.
