Külsheim Christmas market: A festival of diversity and joy!

Christmas magic has arrived in Külsheim! The 34th Christmas market, which opened on Friday evening, has proven to be a truly magical event. In his opening speech, Mayor Thomas Schreglmann praised the great response and diversity of the program, which attracts young and old, clubs and families alike. With a warm “welcome” the number of visitors increased noticeably right from the start.

The atmosphere was characterized by the smell of mulled wine, delicacies and the cheerful laughter of the guests. The children frolicked at the fountain and along the moat while the adults sampled the various drinks and delicacies from the culinary stands. What was particularly pleasing was that there were also many young guests from Eritrea, Syria, Ukraine and Afghanistan at the market, which contributed to the multicultural atmosphere.

Market stalls full of crafts

The market stalls offered a colorful mix of regional crafts. The offerings included honey products, crocheted goods and textiles with artistic cross-stitching. A highlight for railway lovers was the exhibition of the Modelleisenbahn-AG in the Old Town Hall, where a replica of Gambach train station could even be admired. Elsewhere, in the St. Catherine's Chapel, the impressive nativity scene gave an idea of ​​the contemplative side of the market.

The Christmas market in Külsheim not only offers a feast for the senses, but is also a place for encounters. Mayor Schreglmann was particularly proud of the security measures; There are four bollards at the entrances to the market, which he humorously described as “our real security symbols”. The guests affectionately nicknamed them “Bollard Santa Clauses” who provide protection and peace.

Regional products at Christmas markets

Christmas markets also offer a variety of regional delicacies beyond the borders of Külsheim. The popular “Christmas gourmet boxes” are available at the Bamberg Christmas market and are lovingly packed by the employees of the Bamberg Lebenshilfe workshops. This includes, among other things, a bottle of wine from the Bürgerspitalstiftung, beer, quince liqueur and fair-trade coffee. A great gift that not only pleases the taste buds, but also supports the regional economy. These Kistla are priced at 35 euros and are available in a limited edition of 700 pieces, a real bargain!
