Saarburg Christmas Market
Description
Between the festively lit Buttermarkt and the waterfall, Saarburg's Old Town invites you to a unique, colorfully illuminated Christmas atmosphere on the 2nd and 3rd Advent weekends.
Around the glowing Christmas tree above the Leukbach and the illuminated Buttermarkt, market stalls offer regional mulled wine, culinary delights, handicrafts, and local products. Free city tours, walking acts, Santa Claus, music and children's programs, as well as performances by clubs and ensembles provide lively entertainment.
