An enchanting walk
There’s plenty to marvel at in Eguisheim. A little town packed with character, it glitters with splendour during the festive season. Its concentric alleyways naturally guide the visitor to the village centre, where the Advent festivities are in full swing at the Christmas market. Tucked away in a small square, it is irresistibly picturesque. You’ll love the arch of festive greenery at the entrance to the market - it immediately plunges you into the warm, sharing atmosphere. 30 carefully selected craftspeople and creative talents propose festive fare and handicrafts. A stone’s throw away, visit some of the many wine growers who can help you to choose the perfect wines for your festive meals. An instructive visit as well as a treat for the taste buds and a chance to indulge in some festive reverie.
Enjoy the Advent festivities
Once you’ve visited the village and its Christmas market, why not take the time to participate in one of the many events that punctuate the Advent period in Eguisheim? The Night watchman, accompanied by an accordionist, will delight in telling you stories of Eguisheim’s secret past. Pick up a lantern and enjoy a mystical, symbolic experience following the Christkindel and his angels in the St. Lucie procession. As a family, take part in the Christmas treasure hunt. From December 1 to 24, meet in the main square for the opening of the Advent calendar.
