About Villazauber Steglitz

Villazauber is the new, free Christmas market in the garden of the Schwartzschen Villa in Berlin-Steglitz. In December, the park around the historic late Classicist villa on Grunewaldstraße transforms into a small Advent world with arts and crafts, music, a visit from St. Nicholas, and winter treats. The festival is supported by the Café Schwartzsche Villa together with Mosaik-Services gGmbH, an inclusive company whose workshop products shape the market. The 2025 premiere was conceived as an annual gathering for the neighborhood.

Premiere in the Steglitz-Zehlendorf District

With Villazauber, Berlin-Steglitz has had its own small Christmas market in the garden of the Schwartzschen Villa since December 2025. The villa at Grunewaldstraße 54–55, just a few minutes from the S-Bahn and U-Bahn station Rathaus Steglitz, has served as a community center, gallery, and café for years — and is opening its garden for its own market for the first time during the Advent season.

Inclusion and Arts and Crafts

The market is organized by Café Schwartzsche Villa in cooperation with Mosaik-Services gGmbH, an inclusion company that employs people with and without disabilities. Products from the Mosaik workshops — arts and crafts, gifts, seasonal items — form the backbone of the market. In addition, there are stalls from local makers from the district. "The new Christmas market shows how much creativity and commitment there is in our district," explained the District Councillor for Culture.

Program for Families

Over the three days, there will be a varied program with live music, creative workshops for children, and a classic visit from St. Nicholas. Mulled wine, fresh waffles, bratwurst, and winter sweets provide the culinary framework. Admission is free — a neighborhood Advent festival that consciously distinguishes itself from the large tourist markets in Mitte.

Villazauber Steglitz — edition 2026

Following the successful 2025 premiere, Villazauber is planned as an annual Christmas market in the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district. For 2026, an Advent weekend in early December is again anticipated — confirmed dates will be published by Café Schwartzsche Villa in due course. The concept and organizers (Café Schwartzsche Villa & Mosaik-Services gGmbH) remain the same. Free admission.

The second edition of Villazauber will again take place in the garden of the Schwartzschen Villa in 2026. A repeat of the 2025 concept is planned: three days of Advent market, supported by Café Schwartzsche Villa and Mosaik-Services gGmbH, featuring arts and crafts from the inclusion workshops, local exhibitors, live music, and a visit from St. Nicholas. Free admission. The specific date will be published on the district and villa websites.

Programme Villazauber Steglitz 2026
