From the heart of the historical old town, on the Market Square through the Marktstrasse over the Oberstrasse to the world- known Drosselgasse onto the Rheinstrasse and back to the Market Square, Rüdesheim's Christmas Market circles the old town. This year, there will be 124 festively decorated Christmas stands on the Christmas Markets with lots of handmade arts and crafts which are mostly done before your eyes, candles, decorations, wood figures, wood carvings, glass engravings, "schwibbögen" arched candles, mangers, pewter casters and dolls. Of course, festive dishes from the region and the famous Rüdesheim mulled wine will be provided.
What is special from all products offered on the Christmas Market is that they will be handed out to guests from 12 nations with their own land's custom. On different days (Programme in the Christmas Market newspaper) world-known stars, from radio and television will perform. On the Market Square, Germany´s biggest nativity scene (life- size figures) will stand on about 150 square metres of ground. Beside it is our well known Children's Christmas Market made by children for the children. Everyday at 6 pm Rüdesheim's Christ- Child comes with new surprises.
Rüdesheim during pre-Christmas is a lovely destination for you and your family and friends. The small town with a big name, as well as an attractive atmosphere and a worldwide reputation. A visit to the Christmas Market of Nations is always a worthwhile journey.
