Schonungen

On the second Sunday of Advent, it’s that time again: Schonungen is inviting visitors for the 33rd time to the traditional Schonunger Christmas. Together with the many stallholders, the Christmas market has continued to develop over the years without losing its special charm and family-friendly character. Visitors can look forward to a colorful selection of arts and crafts, lovingly designed original creations, and unusual gift ideas. There will also be plenty of culinary offerings and warming drinks to enjoy. Alongside long-standing exhibitors, new vendors repeatedly enrich the market and provide fresh ideas and variety. But the Schonunger Christmas is far more than an ordinary Christmas market. It offers the chance to meet friends and acquaintances, spend time together, and enjoy the special atmosphere of the pre-Christmas season in a sociable setting. The special backdrop also makes a visit an experience: around the Town Hall, the historic Grobesmühle, the listed railway station, the arch bridge, the Old Church, the little river Steinach, the Bachgärten, and Alban Park on the Main, a festively designed Christmas village is created. Festive lighting and a varied stage program for young and old alike will once again provide Christmas entertainment and special moments in 2026.
