Hämelschenburg Advent Market

The Hämelschenburg Advent Market invites you to get into the Advent spirit with over 55 exhibitors from all across Germany. Here you’ll find classic Advent decorations, unique handcrafted items, handmade goods, and special gift ideas – perfect for anyone who loves something special.

Discover mistletoe, pesto specialties, Baumkuchen, baskets, jewelry, and lovingly crafted wooden Advent decorations. For cozy breaks, enjoy warming food like mulled wine, waffles, grilled dishes, burgers, and pizza, as well as Advent soup and homemade cake with coffee in the castle café.

A truly special experience is the atmospheric lighting of the castle and park in the evening, creating a fairy-tale ambiance. A walk takes you through the festively illuminated park past traditional soap making, Klaimbeidl crafts, and the art studio in the mill – a little discovery trail for the whole family.

The Renaissance church also opens its doors, inviting you to moments of reflection. Plus, you can join castle tours that offer fascinating insights into construction and art history as well as the life of the Lower Saxon noble family von Klencke.

Suitable for children and youth from 0 to 16 years old. The market takes place regularly on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
