Advent Magic at the Town Square: The Traunstein Christmas Market 2025
Between Jacklturm and the parish church of St. Oswald, the Traunstein Christmas Market unfolds its market atmosphere: The shine of lights, the scent of fir trees, and regional variety create a shopping experience of handshake quality. Direct marketers and artisans showcase seasonal specialties and fine crafts – daily from November 28 to December 24 at the town square.
Tradition that Smells of Cinnamon and Pine Resin
More than 25 festively decorated huts invite for a stroll. The range extends from hand-turned wooden works to nativity figures and regional delicacies – a true representation of Chiemgau craftsmanship. Mulled wine, punch, and freshly baked goods spread winter scents, while harmonious music accompanies the market activities.
