Christmas magic in Miltenberg: The festive market begins!

The contemplative pre-Christmas season has arrived and with it the anticipation of the festive Christmas markets. In Bavaria, the Christmas market in Miltenberg am Main is very popular. This year it will take place on the three Advent weekends between December 5th and 21st, 2025. Visitors can visit the market on Fridays from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. Entry is free, which makes the event all the more attractive to soak up the festive spirit.

The market extends across the picturesque old town of Miltenberg, which is known for its well-preserved half-timbered facades from the 16th and 17th centuries. In particular, the historic “Schnatterloch” market square, the Old Town Hall and the Mildenburg castle courtyard offer atmospheric backdrops. Artisans exhibit their works in the Old Town Hall and fire bowls and candlelight in the castle courtyard create a cozy atmosphere.

Festive offers for young and old

The culinary delights are also catered for: mulled wine and Feuerzangenbowle as well as hearty and vegetarian dishes are on the culinary menu. Visitors can purchase handmade products at the festively decorated stands and look forward to a pre-Christmas shopping experience in the owner-managed shops in the old town. There is even a small outlet center available to guests.

A special highlight is the Christmas workshop for children, which offers exciting hands-on activities on the market square. The combination of festive atmosphere, culinary delicacies and a colorful supporting program makes the Christmas market in Miltenberg an attractive destination for families and everyone who wants to get in the mood for the most beautiful days of the year.
