Lengerich Nativity Market

The Lengerich Nativity Market has established itself as a fixed part of the pre-Christmas festivities in Münsterland. Against the backdrop of the city's historic architecture, a charming market atmosphere unfolds on the church square, captivating visitors. The offerings include a variety of stalls ranging from traditional Christmas decorations to handicraft products. Regional clubs, schools, and preschools also enrich the selection with handmade goods and culinary specialties.

A special highlight is the extensive nativity scene exhibition in the Evangelical City Church. There, masterfully crafted nativity scenes from local families as well as works by local nativity builders are presented, complemented by creative contributions from preschools and schools. This exhibition is completed by an impressive outdoor nativity scene. In the Old Town Hall, there is also a handicraft market where wood turners, basket weavers, and spinners demonstrate their skills and offer an exquisite selection of jewelry as well as paper art for sale. A diverse supporting program with musical performances ensures a pleasant market atmosphere. The charming staging of the market invites you to slow down, linger, and discover, while the Lengerich Christmas bauble, an annually newly designed collectible by local artists, offers a distinctive souvenir of this traditional event.
