Christmas market Bad Bentheim

The Christmas market in Bad Bentheim, an annual highlight during the Advent season, unfolds its festive splendor in the picturesque castle park, right beneath the impressive Bentheim Castle. This traditional event is organized by the Bad Bentheim Tourist Information, which ensures the smooth running of the market each year..

The market, stretching through Wilhelmstraße, Schloßstraße, and over Herrenberg, offers a unique shopping experience. In about 70 lovingly decorated wooden huts, regional and national exhibitors present a wide range of artisanal products. From hand-sewn doll clothes and handmade stuffed animals to knitted accessories and artistic wood carvings – there is something for every taste and budget, the perfect individual gift.

A special highlight is the three-story pyramid on the town hall square, a masterpiece of craftsmanship from Wolkenstein in the Ore Mountains. With its 27 wooden figures and an impressive height of 6.20 meters, it attracts admiring glances every year.

The festive atmosphere is enhanced by the scent of fresh waffles and mulled wine, as well as performances by choirs and music ensembles. Visitors can explore the market at their leisure or discover the romantically lit steps and alleys of Bad Bentheim. For children, a ride on the nostalgic steam carousel is an unforgettable experience.

Bentheim Castle, the proud landmark of the city, is not only a sight to behold but also of historical significance. It is easily accessible, and ample parking is available near the market. Bad Bentheim itself is known for its quiet yet convenient location and has been a popular spa and bathing resort for centuries. Besides the Christmas market, the city attracts visitors with a rich cultural program and beautiful cycling and hiking tours.

In summary, the Bad Bentheim Christmas market is a wonderful opportunity to immerse oneself in the Christmas spirit, discover unique gifts, and experience the historical beauty of Bad Bentheim.
