Advent market Neustadt an der Orla

The Neustadt Christmas Market, held annually during the Advent season, is a picturesque festival set in the historical surroundings of the Neustadt Market Square and the adjacent medieval meat stalls. Organized by the city administration, this idyllic event is not only well-coordinated but also designed to create a unique experience.

The market spreads across the entire market square, offering a variety of stalls that range from romantic arbors to the St. Johannis city church. These historic buildings, especially the church, give the market a very special atmosphere, marked by history and tradition.

Visitors can admire an impressive selection of handmade products: from pottery and ceramics to jewelry and honey products. Particularly noteworthy are the mouth-blown glass products and the diverse cotton products. Christmas decorations, cribs, and artfully arranged displays, all locally made, complement the offerings.

Schools and kindergartens provide entertainment with a festive program on the market stage, ranging from poetry to singing. Another highlight is the annually displayed hand-carved Christmas nativity scene in the choir vault of the St. Johannis Church. The museums of Neustadt an der Orla also offer special tours on these days. Culinary delights at the market include traditional treats and beverages. Parking facilities are available nearby, making it convenient for visitors to access the market.

Neustadt an der Orla, known for its historical significance and architectural beauty, offers attractions worth visiting beyond the market as well.
