Castle Christmas Zwickau

The Zwickau Castle Christmas at Osterstein Castle is a unique Christmas experience taking place annually on all four Advent weekends. The market is organized by Krauß Event GmbH from Zwickau, known for their event planning expertise and the loving design of the market.

Osterstein Castle itself, with its rich history, offers the perfect setting for this festive market. The market stalls spread across the entire castle grounds, providing an idyllic backdrop for visitors. From Osterstein Castle, a former residence castle, only the former keep from the 12th century, the Wolf Bridge leading to the castle, and remnants of economic buildings and the castle courtyard are preserved.

A special highlight of the Christmas market is the numerous attractions. Visitors particularly value the coziness, child-friendliness, and impressive lighting atmosphere. Over forty regional traders and craftsmen showcase their products and skills. The free offerings include live music, toboggan runs, a children's carousel, a fairy tale cinema, castle tours, campfire bread baking, alpacas, fairy tale narrations, and much more. This year, emphasis is placed on the duration of stay and comfort, highlighted by new covered offerings like heated tipi tents, a rustic grill hut, and a covered fireplace with winter furs. Traditional delicacies and drinks complete the offerings, ensuring culinary delights.

The journey to the Christmas market is straightforward as Zwickau is well-connected to the transport network. The city of Zwickau, known for its historical sights and significance in Saxon history, offers additional attractions for visitors.

In conclusion, the Zwickau Castle Christmas is an unforgettable experience for the whole family, enriching the Christmas season with its special atmosphere and a variety of offerings.

The Castle Christmas takes place annually, and therefore for the eleventh time previsibly in December 2025 in Zwickau.
