Rathaus-Kunstmarkt Rudersberg — Curated Artisan Market

The Rathaus-Kunstmarkt Rudersberg differs from ordinary markets with its unusual event concept: Instead of a hall, the entire Town Hall is used as an exhibition space. The foyer, staircase, hallways, meeting rooms, and council chamber become a gallery with curated exhibitors. The municipality of Rudersberg invites the public to experience the administrative building from a completely new perspective.

Selected Exhibitors, Personal Atmosphere

Anita Molnar manages the exhibitors' applications. Unlike classic Christmas markets or creative markets, a careful selection takes place—artists with handmade products in small editions or unique pieces are represented. The range includes sewn items and textiles, knitwear and felt crafts, jewelry (silver, bronze, natural materials), paper and wood art, decorative wooden signs, paintings, and small sculptures. The format remains manageable—which facilitates personal interaction between artists and the public.

Friday Evening Opening and Saturday Market

The market opens on Friday, October 16, 2026, from 5 PM to 10 PM as an opening evening with a relaxed atmosphere for visitors after work. On Saturday, October 17, from 11 AM to 6 PM, the market is open in the classic family and weekend format. Food and drinks complement the artistic program.

Rudersberg — Municipality in the Welzheimer Wald

Rudersberg is located in the eastern Rems-Murr district (Baden-Württemberg) on the edge of the Welzheimer Wald, about 40 km east of Stuttgart. With around 11,500 inhabitants, the municipality is a lively central point for the surrounding region. The Rathaus-Kunstmarkt in October is one of the most charming events in the calendar—a curated encounter between the regional craft scene and interested visitors, with the charm of a small community.
