Medieval Christmas Market in Siegburg

During the Advent season, Siegburg’s market square at the foot of Michaelsberg transforms into a fascinating world of times long past. Among the authentically designed market stalls, you’ll find artisans, merchants, musicians, and jugglers dressed in medieval garb. As darkness falls, torches, fire pits, oil lamps, and candles create a very special atmosphere. As you stroll through the atmospherically lit tent city, you can discover traditional crafts, find unique gift ideas, and be entertained by medieval music and performances. The culinary offerings are also in keeping with the historic setting: hearty dishes cooked over an open fire, sweet treats, as well as mead, mulled wine, and oriental mocha invite you to indulge. There’s plenty for children to discover. Hands-on activities, jugglers, and a historic, hand-cranked children’s carousel provide special experiences and make the visit an exciting outing for the whole family.
