If you’d like to experience some festive Christmas cheer during the Advent season, you should pay a visit to the “Christmas Village under the Krönchen.” On Advent weekends, the Oberstadt transforms into an atmospheric gathering place with lovingly decorated Christmas huts. Organized by ISG Oberstadt e.V., an association of local merchants and property owners, a small Christmas village awaits you in the park at the foot of St. Nicholas Church, just a few steps from City Hall and the market square.
The festive lighting against the historic backdrop creates a magical atmosphere where you can leave the pre-Christmas hustle and bustle behind. Look forward to a varied selection of winter delicacies, warming drinks, and small stalls featuring handicrafts and unique gift ideas. Some of the vendors and artisans change from week to week—so there’s always something new to discover. Whether it’s mulled wine with a shot or children’s punch, there’s plenty of refreshments to enjoy.
The varied stage program in the heart of the village adds to the Christmas spirit. Regional artists and up-and-coming bands representing various musical genres perform their songs in a relaxed, unplugged atmosphere. You can warm up by the open fire barrels, listen to the music, and enjoy the special Advent atmosphere in Siegen’s Oberstadt.
