About the market

The Rurberger Weihnachtsmarkt on the picturesque Eiserbachsee offers a pre-Christmas experience in a unique atmosphere every year. On the first three weekends of Advent, over 20 lovingly designed stalls present a variety of handmade products, artistic gifts and regional specialities. The tempting scent of mulled wine and culinary delights fills the air and invites you to linger. A particular highlight for children is the visit of Saint Nicholas, who travels across the Eiserbachsee by boat at nightfall and has small surprises in store. The idyllic setting of the lake, combined with festive lighting and musical accompaniment, creates a contemplative mood that makes the market a special attraction in the pre-Christmas period. Easy access to the market is ensured by ample parking in the immediate vicinity and the bus stop 'Rurberg Seeufer' right at the market.
