Advent Cheer in the Artists' Village
Worpswede is one of Germany's most famous artists' villages. During Advent, the village reveals its most atmospheric side: illuminated houses, lit Christmas trees, and the warm glow of market stalls create an atmosphere that blends the village's artistic heritage with classic Advent cheer. The Christmas market is part of this pre-Christmas life and a welcome occasion to visit the artists' village during the quiet winter season.
New Management in 2026
The organization of the Christmas market has been newly appointed for 2026: Matthias Cordes is taking over the management, thus ensuring the continuity of the market format. The exact dates and the complete program will be communicated by the organizer in due course.
Hut Village and Community Participation
The market features a hut village with mulled wine, bratwurst, potato pancakes, 'Schmalzkuchen' (lard cakes), and Christmas pastries. Artisans from the artists' village and the wider region offer jewelry, ceramics, woodwork, and textiles. Advent concerts in the Worpswede church complement the market events with contemplative moments.
