About Artisans' Market

The Worpswede Artisans' Market is one of North Germany's most renowned craft markets. Held on the weekend before the first Advent, it brings selected professional artisans to the artists' village of Worpswede. Jewellery, ceramics, textiles, wood, and glass are the focus – presented by artists whose work stands for quality, originality, and craftsmanship beyond the Worpswede weekend. The artists' village, world-famous for its connection to art and culture since the late 19th century, provides the ideal setting for a market format that highlights high-quality craftsmanship.

Careful Selection of Exhibitors

The Worpswede Artisans' Market features a curated selection of exhibitors. Only professional artisans whose work is convincing in terms of quality and design are admitted. This selection policy distinguishes the Worpswede market from many classic Advent markets and makes it a destination for targeted gift and art searches at the start of Advent.

Five Disciplines in Focus

Jewellery, ceramics, textiles, wood, and glass are the central disciplines of the market. The selected artists present unique pieces and small series, often with the opportunity for direct interaction and personal conversation. Those who value handmade, thoughtfully designed gifts will find carefully curated offerings at the market.

Worpswede Atmosphere at the Start of Advent

The weekend before the first Advent imbues the market with a special energy: Advent begins in the Worpswede artists' village with a market format that combines the cultural tradition of the place with modern craftsmanship. Families, collectors, and art enthusiasts from the Teufelsmoor, the Wümme region, and Bremen regularly come to Worpswede for this pre-Christmas market visit.

Artisans' Market — edition 2026

The 2026 Worpswede Artisans' Market will take place on Saturday, November 28, and Sunday, November 29, in the artists' village of Worpswede. Selected professional artists will present jewellery, ceramics, textiles, wood, and glass. The market opens the Advent season with a high-quality craft format.

Two Market Days at the Start of Advent

The two market days invite you for a relaxed stroll through the artists' village on the weekend before the first Advent. Personal conversations with the artists are part of the market's character.
