About
The Silesian Christkindel Market in Görlitz, an annual highlight during Advent, transports visitors to a world filled with Christmas wonders. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Görlitz's medieval old town, on the Untermarkt, the market unfolds from late November until just before Christmas Eve. It captivates with its festive atmosphere, the scent of gingerbread, bratwurst, and mulled wine, and the sound of Christmas music. Since its inception, the Christkindel Market has become a meeting place for young and old. There's much for children to discover a reading tent, a craft wagon, a train, a children's carousel, a picture book cinema, and a puppet theater, creating bright eyes and unforgettable moments. A daily highlight is the appearance of the Christkindel at 4 PM, proclaiming the joyous message. The market is organized by the Görlitz Culture Service Company mbH, which, besides organizing the market, is also responsible for other cultural events in the city. The Untermarkt itself, surrounded by historic buildings, provides an impressive backdrop that highlights the market's special ambiance. The market stalls stretch across the entire Untermarkt, offering traditional specialties, handmade goods, and unique gift ideas. A romantic ice rink, a Bethlehem courtyard, and a living nativity scene are just some of the many attractions that distinguish the Silesian Christkindel Market. Görlitz, the easternmost city in Germany, is rich in history and culture and has one of the best-preserved old towns in Central Europe. With its numerous sights, including both secular and sacred buildings from all architectural periods between the Renaissance, Late Gothic, Baroque, and Art Nouveau, the city is considered Germany's largest area monument. Undoubtedly, the city's attractions include the Peterskirche – the symbol of Görlitz, the centrally located Untermarkt with its historic town hall, and remnants of the former city wall and fortifications. Witnesses of the historical fortifications, such as the Reichenbacher Tower, Thick Tower, Nikolai Tower, Town Hall Tower, or Hothertower, are omnipresent and shape the cityscape. The city is easily accessible by public transport and car, providing the perfect setting for this special Christmas market. In summary, the Silesian Christkindel Market in Görlitz is a place of joy, togetherness, and festive experiences. It combines traditional elements with modern attractions, making Advent an unforgettable experience for visitors from near and far. The Christmas fair will take place on 17 days from Friday, 28. November to Sunday, 14. December 2025 in Görlitz.
