Historisch-Romantischer Weihnachtsmarkt Festung Königstein

About the market

It is regarded as one of the most beautiful not only in Saxony but also in Germany: the Christmas market at Festung Königstein. The elaborately staged spectacle high above the Elbe attracts visitors with traditional goods, old craftsmanship, handmade music, puppet theatre and real animals in the Christmas nativity scene. Part of the market takes place in underground sandstone vaults. The SterneDom: an enchanting sound and light experience Countless Herrnhut stars bathe the Dunkle Appareille, the historic fortress ascent, in atmospheric light and bring a mystical atmosphere to the sandstone vaults filled with Gregorian chant. Dates: on all 4 Advent weekends (Saturday & Sunday)
