Christmas market Selb

29 Nov. - 01 Dec. 2024 | Christmas market on Martin-Luther-Platz in front of St. Andreas Church

The Christmas market in Selb is an annual festival of joy and togetherness, held during the Advent season on each of the four weekends from Friday to Sunday. Located on the picturesque Martin Luther Square, right in front of the impressive St. Andrew's Church, unfolds a market meticulously and competently organized by the city administration. This idyllic setting, framed by historical buildings, gives the market a distinctive atmosphere that attracts visitors from near and far..

A highlight of the Selb Christmas Market is the international participation. Sister cities like Beaucouzé from France and Pardubice from the Czech Republic enrich the market on the first and second Advent weekends with offerings typical of their countries. This cultural diversity gives the market a special flair and underscores Selb's connection with its sister cities.

Besides the international ambiance, the market is characterized by a rich program of events, ranging from children's choirs and singing societies to a Christmas crafting workshop. These activities create a festive and cheerful atmosphere, particularly appealing to families. A memorable feature of the Selb Christmas Market is Germany's largest Christmas tree decorated with porcelain, symbolizing the porcelain city of Selb and forming a fascinating centerpiece of the market. Surrounded by a village of booths, which, despite their modest size, create a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, the Christmas tree quickly becomes a favorite photo subject for visitors.

In the mid-19th century, Selb developed into a porcelain city when Lorenz Hutschenreuther established the first porcelain factory in 1857. Over the years, more porcelain factories were founded, including Jakob Zeidler & Co., J. Rieber, and Rosenthal, to name a few. The porcelain fountain standing in the pedestrian zone today still reminds of this era.

For culinary delights, traditional treats from Selb's butchers and a variety of hearty and sweet dishes are offered. These culinary pleasures are an essential part of the market experience and reflect the regional cuisine.

In conclusion, the Christmas market in Selb is worth a visit not only for its unique atmosphere and diverse offerings, but also for the warmth and hospitality experienced by visitors. It is a place of encounter and exchange, inviting people to linger and enjoy each year anew.

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