Advent atmosphere at the village green in Southeast Berlin
Founded in 1747 as a Palatinate colony, Müggelheim is now the southeasternmost district of Treptow-Köpenick. With its village green, old school, and original wooden church, the place has retained a character unexpected in Berlin – especially after an hour's journey by S-Bahn and bus from the city centre.
The Müggelheim Local History Association has organized the market on the first Saturday of Advent for decades. It's a rural affair: stalls selling gifts, textiles, ceramics, and handmade items line the village green between Alt-Müggelheim 21 and the village church. In the Old School, the association serves homemade cakes and coffee, the volunteer fire brigade runs a barbecue stand, and the business circle offers mulled wine. Langos, crêpes, and potato pancakes complete the culinary offerings.
During the day, piano (Mr. Witzmann) and oboe duos perform in the Old School. The village church traditionally hosts two puppet theatre performances – in previous years, plays like The Golden Pot. The day concludes with an Advent concert in the church – in 2025, for example, with the Klangzeit Choir Biesdorf, and in previous years with various ensembles from Müggelheim's music scene.
Free admission. Getting there by public transport: S3 to Köpenick, then Bus 169 to Müggelheim. By car, take the A113 to Köpenick and continue through the Köpenick Forest. District Treptow-Köpenick, Berlin, State of Berlin.
The date follows the market's decades-long tradition of taking place on the first Saturday of Advent. The Local History Association will publish the detailed programme and opening hours in late autumn 2026 on mueggelheimer-heimatverein.de. As in 2025, stalls with arts and crafts, mulled wine, a coffee room in the Old School, puppet theatre in the village church, and an Advent concert in the evening are expected.
The exact schedule for 2026 will be announced by the Müggelheim Local History Association in November 2026. Programme structure known from previous years:
Puppet theatre in the village church; Advent concert; rural Advent atmosphere on Müggelheim's village green; Local History Association as organizer.
