Advent market Rinteln

The Advent market in Rinteln is a truly magical experience that takes place every year during the Advent season until just before New Year's Eve. This annual Christmas market unfolds its charm on the historic market square and a part of the new pedestrian zone. Rinteln, with its well-preserved old town, is still characterized today by numerous valuable half-timbered houses and, with its festively lit streets and decorated shop windows, provides the perfect backdrop for this atmospheric market..

The Rinteln City Administration, the organizer of the market, uses its expertise to create an unforgettable celebration. The market square itself, surrounded by historic buildings, lends the market a unique atmosphere. Visitors are greeted by Christmas-decorated cottages that extend from the market square into the adjacent streets.

One of the highlights of the Advent Magic is the impressive Christmas tree, which forms the centerpiece of the market. Children's eyes sparkle at the sight of the twinkling children's carousel, while musical performances in the background provide contemplative hours. Another eye-catcher is the Christmas pyramid, under which one can indulge in treats.

Visitors can expect a variety of traditional delicacies and drinks, such as mulled wine, cookies, cinnamon, and oranges. These aromas fill the air and contribute to the festive mood. In addition to enjoying food and drinks, visitors can find ideal gifts for the whole family while strolling through the old town.

Rinteln, a town with a rich history and numerous sights such as the St. Nikolai Church or the Eulenburg, is easily accessible and offers the perfect setting for the Advent Magic.

The Eulenburg received its present appearance in 1591 through a reconstruction. After various uses, such as a knight's seat, monastic town court, and as a Hessian-Schaumburg governmental and administrative seat, it now houses the Rinteln Museum.
