Schloss Bevern Christmas Market

While most Christmas markets take place in market squares and pedestrian zones, Bevern takes a different approach: the Christmas market is held in the courtyard of the Weser Renaissance castle. This setting makes it one of the most charming small Advent markets in the district of Holzminden.

Castle Courtyard as a Stage

Bevern Castle, a Weser Renaissance masterpiece, is considered one of the most beautiful Renaissance buildings in Northern Germany. Its courtyard offers a sheltered, intimate space that is perfect for a small, high-quality Advent market. Wooden stalls offering mulled wine, bratwurst, and handcrafted Advent items are arranged around the courtyard, creating a special atmosphere.

Concert by the Bevern Choir Association

The Bevern Choir Association provides a musical highlight with a concert in the castle chapel. Advent and Christmas songs, performed in an acoustically excellent space, offer a contemplative counterpoint to the convivial atmosphere in the courtyard.

Dance Show by MTV Bevern

MTV Bevern enriches the market with a dance show. Dance groups of various ages present their rehearsed choreographies, bringing movement and energy to the stage in the courtyard.

Visit from St. Nicholas

A highlight for the youngest guests is the visit from St. Nicholas around 5:15 PM. With a sack full of gifts, he strolls through the castle courtyard, distributing small treats to the children. This gesture gives the market a particularly child-friendly character.

A Tradition for Years

The Schloss Bevern Christmas Market has developed into a beloved tradition over the years. Regular visitors appreciate the family-friendly atmosphere and the high quality of the Advent items. Those looking to escape large, commercial Christmas markets will find a genuine alternative here.
