The Culture and Christmas Market at Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna is an event that takes place annually from mid-November until just before Epiphany. This traditional event has evolved into one of the highlights of the pre-Christmas season in Vienna.
The choice of Schönbrunn Palace as the venue is no coincidence. The Baroque palace, with its rich history and magnificent architecture, provides the perfect backdrop for a Christmas market. Especially in the evening hours, when countless lights clothe the palace and the surrounding gardens in festive attire, a truly magical atmosphere emerges.
The market is organized by MTS - Marketing Tourismus Synergie Wien GmbH, a company specializing in promoting tourism in Vienna. With their expertise, they manage year after year to make the Culture and Christmas Market at Schönbrunn Palace an unforgettable experience for visitors from around the world.
The market stalls extend in the courtyard in front of Schönbrunn Palace and offer a diverse range of products, from artisanal crafts and nostalgic toys to Christmas decorations. A special highlight is the hand-carved nativity scene by master carver Franz Oberschneider, which brings the Christmas story to life with almost 250 figures.
A visit to the Culture and Christmas Market at Schönbrunn Palace is a unique experience. In addition to the lovingly decorated huts and the impressive backdrop of the palace, visitors can also enjoy traditional delicacies such as roasted almonds, chestnuts, gingerbread, and punch, all of which provide festive culinary delights.
The market is easily accessible by public transport, making it an attractive destination for both locals and tourists.
In summary, the Culture and Christmas Market at Schönbrunn Palace is special not only because of its unique location and historic setting. It's the complete package of atmosphere, craftsmanship, culinary delights, and a program of events that attracts visitors from all over the world and makes the market an unforgettable experience.
