Eppingen Christmas Market

Half-Timbered Advent in Kraichgau

Eppingen, with its over 200 listed half-timbered buildings, offers a market backdrop that is in a class of its own in Southern Germany. In 2025, the city once again utilized this heritage for its Christmas market — a car-free city center, evening illumination of the half-timbered houses, and a compact market layout on the market square.

The concept of a central main market day plus district markets in Mühlbach and Richen has proven successful over the years. This distributes the Eppingen Advent season over several weekends without any single event becoming overly large. Those seeking Advent atmosphere with historical character found it in Eppingen in 2025 as well.
