Advent Magic at the Town Square: Traunstein's Christmas Market Invites You
In the midst of the historic old town, the Traunstein Christmas Market unfolds its unique market atmosphere: Sparkling lights, the scent of mulled wine and roasted almonds, fine craftsmanship, and regional diversity create a harmonious shopping experience right in the town square.
Authentic Market Experience with Regional Producers
About 25 to over 30 lovingly decorated stalls present handicrafts, Christmas decorations, regional products, and seasonal specialties. Direct marketers and producers from the region offer high-quality crafts – from wood and wax work to felt and ceramics, as well as fine spices, honey, and farm specialties.
Culinary Delights from Chiemgau
Those who enjoy tasting will get their money's worth: Baumstriezel fresh from the grill, grilled sausages, cheese noodles, sweet pastry variations, accompanied by mulled wine and punch in classic and fruity varieties. This diversity makes strolling a delightful shopping experience.
Program for Young and Old
A family-friendly accompanying program with puppet theater, children's train, nostalgic carousel, Christmas Post Office, and the traditional Saint Nicholas visit brings the Advent spirit to the square. Music bands, school, and brass groups accompany with Advent melodies.
