Christmas Market in Hornburg
The Christmas market will take place on Saturday, December 5, from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in and around the historic market square in the heart of Hornburg. At the festively decorated market, you can enjoy regional specialties such as delicious Cambert cheese, potato pancakes with applesauce from the German-Italian Friendship Association, and grilled bratwurst from Bötel’s butcher shop. Mulled wine, eggnog, and Feuerzangenbowle from the Hornburg Marching Band, as well as all kinds of Christmas treats such as pastries and candied almonds. Traditional handicrafts, including wooden items and giftware, will also be available.
This year, the Seniors’ Association is inviting Hornburg’s senior citizens to enjoy free coffee and cake at Café Zuckerblume on the market square. St. Nicholas isn’t the only one with surprises in store for the little guests. A children’s carousel, craft activities, and the children’s and youth group from the Altstadt-Theater Hornburg will get the youngest visitors into the pre-Christmas spirit with scene collages from a well-known children’s book.
The festive music program will be provided by the flute ensemble and the young voices, as well as the Achim Trombone Choir, which will perform festive chorales on the market square at 6:30 p.m. and invite everyone to sing along.
Treat yourself and enjoy the atmosphere on the market square. All guests are warmly welcome!
