Old town St. Nicholas market at the local history museum

The St. Nicholas Market, which traditionally takes place on the first weekend of Advent in the local history museum in Bergneustadt's historic old town, is organized by local associations, schools and kindergartens. The charming ambience of the half-timbered houses awaits you with Christmas treats such as handmade Christmas decorations and Bergneustad specialties such as "Riiwekauken", spit roast and tarte flambée from the bakery. Of course, Santa Claus will also be stopping by, a highlight not only for children, and you can win attractive prizes on the popular wheel of fortune. Various "Nystädter Schmiedewasser" will be on offer in the museum smithy, which, in addition to the warm forge fire, is guaranteed to give you inner warmth. On Saturday evening, you will also find a public performance by the Bergneustadt music school in the local history museum. The market attaches great importance to sustainability and consistently uses reusable tableware. There are also excellent public transport links to Gummersbach and Olpe.
