Magical Advent in Hinterstoder

A Magical Advent in Hinterstoder
Traditionally, on the first weekend of Advent, the center of Hinterstoder is decked out in festive Christmas decorations. The large Christmas tree and the warm glow of candles and lanterns set the mood for the most contemplative time of the year. Let yourself be enchanted by the atmospheric glow of the fire bowls as you wander among the lovingly decorated stalls run by local clubs, regional businesses, and artists. The handcrafted treasures range from nativity scenes, ceramics, beaded and silver jewelry, and fashion accessories made of wool, felt, and fabric, to woodturning, woodcarvings, and children’s toys. Also on offer are game products, bratwurst, Holzknechtspatz’n, raclette bread, liqueurs, cookies, herbs, honey products, cards, pictures, door wreaths, floral arrangements, health products, and much more. In the cozy parish café, delicious homemade pastries are served with coffee. Atmospheric Christmas music performed by local bands provides the musical backdrop for the market.


The vendors and artisans look forward to your visit!
