Sonneberg Christmas Market

Ready for a visit to the toy town during the most wonderful time of the year? The Sonneberg Christmas Market on the third Advent weekend is a true highlight in South Thuringia. The market, located in the train station square in front of the New Town Hall, captivates with its particularly festive setting: The Town Hall itself transforms into an oversized Advent calendar! Every day, the Christkind opens a new window and gifts the little visitors – a magical moment for children's hearts. Surrounded by a magnificent Christmas tree and festively decorated stalls, you can expect a fascinating blend of tradition and enjoyment. Try typical specialties such as Rennöl, Glögg, and Thuringian treats. Discover regional handicrafts and, of course, toy accessories that honor the city's tradition. The Sonneberg Christmas Market is more than just a market – it is a Christmas wonderland with a daily cultural program, music, and visits from Santa Claus and the Christkind, putting everyone, young and old, in a festive mood.
