A Month of Christmas Spirit in Nordhorn
The Nordhorn Christmas Market runs from late November until December 23rd, making Nordhorn's city centre a central meeting point during Advent. Unlike many smaller markets in the region, it lasts for a whole month and can be visited multiple times.
Spread Along the Main Street
The stalls are set up along the main street, creating a continuous market atmosphere that shapes the pre-Christmas flair with lighting, music, and scents. Shops and market stalls complement each other.
Crafts, Gifts, and Refreshments
The market features stalls with crafts, jewellery, toys, Advent decorations, as well as food stands offering bratwurst, potato pancakes, crêpes, almonds, and mulled wine. The variety of offerings makes the market a destination for all Advent moods.
Longer Opening Hours on Thursdays and Saturdays
Opening hours are Mon-Wed and Fri from 11 am to 8 pm, and on Thursdays and Saturdays until 10 pm. This offers an option for families in the early evening and an option for working people and young adults in the late evening.
Seamless Transition to the Year-End Market
The market transitions seamlessly into the year-end market from December 27th to 30th, meaning Nordhorn offers market atmosphere for almost the entire month of December. This is a unique selling point for the district capital of the Grafschaft.
