Pre-Christmas in the Old Town
The Sassnitz Christmas Market opens the Christmas season in the harbor town on the island of Rügen. The venue is the old town, which shines in winter light on the first Advent weekend. Stalls, booths, and fairy lights transform the historic center into an atmospheric Christmas backdrop.
Crafts and Delicacies
At the Christmas market, visitors will find handcrafted products, Christmas gift ideas, and decorations. Culinary delights such as mulled wine, Christmas cookies, and hearty specialties ensure the perfect winter experience. The market is manageable and family-friendly – a place to meet, chat, and enjoy the pre-Christmas season.
Sassnitz in Advent
Sassnitz is located in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. In winter, the island of Rügen shows a quieter, more contemplative side – the summer guests have departed, and the harbor town belongs to the locals again. The Christmas market is an expression of this winter coziness and a fixed date in the town's event calendar.
Start to the Christmas Season
With the Christmas market on the first Advent weekend, Sassnitz gets into the Christmas spirit. For holidaymakers who want to experience the island of Rügen outside the peak season, the market is an opportunity to get to know the quiet winter atmosphere and the hospitality of the harbor town.
