Aulendorf Advent Days Aulendorf

The Aulendorf Advent Days are a magical experience during the pre-Christmas season, traditionally held on the second weekend of Advent. Over the years, they have become a cherished tradition, drawing visitors from near and far.

Nestled picturesquely in the heart of Upper Swabia, Aulendorf provides the perfect backdrop for this special Christmas market with its historic charm. Centrally located, the quaint town is easily accessible by car, train, or bus. The venue itself is especially enchanting: the romantic Radhof, situated right next to the imposing Aulendorf Castle. The castle's towers and walls lend the market an atmosphere that is truly unique.

The market stalls spread throughout the courtyard, creating a welcoming, almost fairy-tale-like setting. From colorful handicrafts and festive decorations to locally crafted one-of-a-kind items, every visitor is sure to find the perfect gift or souvenir. Highlights include the aroma of freshly roasted almonds, spiced mulled wine, and traditional Swabian delicacies such as Dinnete and gingerbread. The market offers not only culinary delights but also lovingly crafted gift ideas that perfectly capture the Christmas spirit.

A distinctive feature of the Aulendorf Advent Days is the harmonious blend of tradition and authenticity. Regional artists and craftsmen proudly showcase their creations, while numerous musical performances add to the festive atmosphere. Families, too, will find much to enjoy: children can look forward to craft activities and live nativity plays.

The Aulendorf Advent Days are far more than just an ordinary Christmas market—they are a labor of love for the region and an event that delights visitors year after year. Whether as a heartwarming way to usher in the holiday season or a cozy outing with family and friends, the Advent Days at the Radhof add an extra touch of magic to the most wonderful time of the year.
