Hameln captivates... especially during Christmas time! Magnificently decorated buildings of the Weser Renaissance and charming half-timbered houses with lovingly adorned shops form the unique backdrop of the Hameln Christmas Market. 65 individually designed huts and the giant pyramid are set in a festive scene. The lovingly decorated market and the stars of the Christmas lights envelop the city in a warm festive glow. Artisans, glühwein stands, a historic Ferris wheel, the reindeer train, and all kinds of delicacies accompany visitors on a wonderful round to see the impressive ensemble of the Hochzeitshaus and the Marktkirche (to the pictures). Every Wednesday and Saturday, the Santa Claus visits the Pied Piper city. What will happen when he meets the piper: A dark secret has followed the capital of seduction since 1284, even during Christmas time. In our red glowing wish hut, the magic of Christmas comes alive! Speak your heart's desire into our enchanted microphone and step through the magical lights. With each step, your wish grows stronger, until, at the end, it is amplified a thousandfold directly to Santa Claus and into the entire universe. Experience real wish magic from Hameln! Let yourself be enchanted by Hameln and the many wonderful offerings during Christmas time.
