Christmas market Hauzenberg

The Christmas market in the Hauzenberg Quarry, also known as GRANIT-Christmas, is a unique event that takes place every year during the Christmas season in the ambiance of the old quarry site of the Bavarian Forest Granite Center. The city administration, as the organizer, hosts this market annually on the first three weekends of Advent, from Thursday to Sunday, attracting visitors from far beyond the region's borders..

What makes this market special is its location in the Hauzenberg Quarry, where the market stalls stretch along the impressive rock formations. Here, local artisans from the Three-River Region offer their goods, and life-size nativity figures create a festive atmosphere. A distinctive feature is the unique light installations that bathe the water and rocks in a pre-Christmas glow, complemented by pre-Christmas concerts that underscore the festive mood.

Culinary delights treat visitors with traditional specialties and drinks. The culinary offerings reflect the regional diversity and the spirit of Christmas.

The market is worth visiting not only for its unique location in the quarry but also for the combination of traditional craftsmanship, cultural performances, and culinary delights.

This city is of cultural-historical significance and is known for the Hauzenberg granite deposits. Numerous historical buildings in Hauzenberg and in Passau are made of this stone. The Dinkelbier Museum of the Apostelbräu brewery is also worth a visit.

In conclusion, the Christmas market in the Hauzenberg Quarry is more than just a market; it is a comprehensive experience that unites tradition, culture, and the beauty of nature, making it an unforgettable experience during the Advent season.

The Christmas market will take place on 3 days from Friday, 29. November to Sunday, 01. December 2024 in Hauzenberg.
