The Vetschau Castle Christmas is an annual highlight, traditionally taking place on the first Advent weekend from Friday to Sunday. This festive event, organized by the city administration, brings life to the castle park. The market spans the entire area around the castle, offering visitors a magical atmosphere. Vetschau Castle, now the seat of the city administration, with its historical significance, provides the perfect backdrop for this Christmas market. It is not only a historical landmark of the city but also a symbol of the culture and history of the region. A special feature of the market is its diverse offerings focused on children. The interactive activities are expanded each year, and Santa Claus visits the market on both days to distribute gifts. Vendors offer a variety of gift ideas, while craftsmen showcase their skills, complementing the market activities. The stage program is varied and rotates at different locations in and around the castle. The culinary offerings are also a highlight. Traditional delicacies and drinks, such as mulled wine and regional specialties, await the visitors. The Castle Christmas is remarkable not only for its unique location in the castle park and garden but also for the mix of traditional Christmas market and focus on families and children. The market is easily accessible, making it an ideal destination for a pre-Christmas excursion. Finally, it is worth mentioning that the new concept introduced last year, which was very well received by visitors, makes this event an unforgettable experience. The Christmas market in Vetschau took place from Friday, 29. November to Sunday, 01. December 2024.
