The scent of fir greenery and mulled wine wafts over more than 40 market stalls with unique offerings at the Oberboihingen Christmas Market. A versatile program and good hospitality guarantee enjoyable hours of strolling, rounded off by a colorful cultural abundance. Highlights for children at the Oberboihingen Christmas Market include a nostalgic carousel, a nativity scene, and St. Nicholas. Over 50 market vendors present a wide range of individual Christmas items, festive decorations, original crafts and handmade goods, toys, as well as exquisite artisanal and handcrafted products in more than 40 creatively decorated market huts. Hungry and thirsty visitors can choose from an extensive selection of hearty, spicy, substantial, and also sweet culinary delights. Many delicious Christmas specialties—sweet or savory—will cater to the physical well-being of market guests. Many market visitors come specifically to the Oberboihingen Christmas Market to taste the popular original Thuringian bratwurst. The sausages, along with other Thuringian specialties from the partner community of Seebergen, will be available. As a special attraction for young visitors, a nostalgic carousel will also be set up on Nürtinger Straße in 2025. On Saturday from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM and Sunday from 1:00 PM to 4:30 PM, St. Nicholas will be present throughout the market area, distributing various gifts from his sack to the children. He is particularly pleased when children can recite a small poem for him. A hallmark of the Oberboihingen Christmas Market in 2025 will again be the extremely diverse cultural accompanying program, featuring a wealth of live performances, concerts, and exhibitions in the village square, at the town hall, and in the Bartholomew Church. Local clubs and institutions contribute significantly to this.
