The Romantic Christmas Market at Merode Castle in Langerwehe is an annual event that traditionally takes place from the last week of November until the end of December. This festive event is organized by Veranstaltungsservice Peter Kittel GmbH, known for their expertise in creating unique event experiences.
The market is set in the picturesque surroundings of Merode Castle, whose historic architecture provides a fascinating backdrop and offers visitors an atmospheric journey back in time. The historic water castle in the municipality of Langerwehe in the Düren district is renowned for its picturesque architecture and rich history. The castle, whose origins date back to the 12th century, was originally a medieval fortress. It has been remodeled and expanded several times over the centuries, acquiring its current form mostly in the 18th century. One of the castle's most striking features is its characteristic moat structure, typical of many European water castles. This lends the castle a fairytale and romantic appearance, making it a popular photo subject and event location. The market stalls are arranged around the castle and extend across its expansive grounds, creating a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity.
Visitors to the market can expect a multitude of special features. In addition to the impressive lighting and decoration that bathe the castle and its surroundings in a fairytale light, the market offers a selection of traditional crafts and regional products. Stalls offer everything from handmade jewelry and crafts to Christmas ornaments and seasonal decorations.
A hallmark of the Romantic Christmas Market at Merode Castle is the extraordinary selection of culinary delights. Traditional delicacies and drinks, such as mulled wine, roasted almonds, and gingerbread, are plentiful and offer visitors an authentic taste of the regional cuisine.
Each year, the market provides a magical experience that transports visitors of all ages into the enchanting world of Christmas.
