Advent Glow at the Town Square: The Traunstein Christkindlmarkt Invites You
In the heart of the historic old town, the Traunstein Christkindlmarkt unfolds its market atmosphere: garlands of lights, the scent of mulled wine and spices, handicrafts, and regional diversity create a shopping experience that warms the heart and palate.
Regional Treasures Directly from the Producer
Over 25 festively decorated huts present artisanal crafts, Christmas ornaments, and seasonal specialties. Direct marketers and producers offer honey, preserves, and chutneys, while craft businesses showcase glass art, woodworking, and textiles. Quality, origin, and short supply chains are the focus – a vibrant farmers' market in Christmas attire.
Sensory Impressions Between St. Oswald and Jacklturm
Between the church and Jacklturm, notes of cinnamon and orange mingle with the smoke of freshly baked treats. Colorful stars, sparkling lights, and lovingly decorated stalls make every stroll a delightful tour through the old town.
Program for Young and Old
Puppet theater, music school ensembles, and the traditional St. Nicholas visit bring festive spirit to the stage. For children, the carousel and train provide sparkling eyes; creative offers like crafting with sheep wool round off the family-friendly offerings.
