Dear residents of Klagenfurt, dear guests of the provincial capital, At the end of November the most attractive Christmas market in the Alps-Adriatic region will be opening its doors once again, right in the heart of our city. Visitors from all over Europe come to the Neuer Platz and the Domplatz to enjoy the traditional customs, art, culture and typical culinary treats and get in the mood for the loveliest celebration of the year. If you are still looking for traditional Christmas gifts, you will find countless market stalls with Christmas cribs, handicrafts, hand-made Christmas jewellery or colourful wooden toys. Our Christmas Market has always focused on traditional customs. In the wintry atmosphere in Klagenfurt, the sounds of amateur singing groups, choirs, music schools and international artists create a wonderful atmosphere for the run-up to Christmas. A nostalgic merry-go-round, a children’s train and a petting zoo help to sweeten the wait for Christmas for the little ones. I wish you and your families a blessed Christmas and a peaceful holiday period! Yours sincerely, Maria-Luise Mathiaschitz Mayor of Klagenfurt am Wörthersee When the days get shorter and the mountain tops glisten snowy white in the distance, the time has come to put up the artistically carved crib figures and the large Christmas tree on the Neuer Platz. The Christmas Market outside Klagenfurt City Hall and the Craft Market on the Domplatz are two of the most attractive Christmas markets in the Alpine-Adriatic region and attract thousands of visitors to our city every year. Handmade Christmas tree decorations, traditional craft products and home-made Christmas punch all await visitors to these atmospheric seasonal markets. For children, there is a petting zoo and artificial ice rink to make the wait for Father Christmas go a little faster. I wish you a happy and peaceful Advent and look forward to your visit to the Christmas Market on the Neuer Platz and the Craft Market on the Domplatz! Kind regards, Jürgen Pfeiler Deputy Mayor of the provincial capital Klagenfurt am Wörthersee Christmas is coming. Our beautiful city centre takes on a particular splendour in Advent, and there is a very special atmosphere in the city’s streets, lanes and squares. Klagenfurt in Advent is a place where tradition and customs are brought to life, amidst all sorts of cultural events. In the many shops in the city centre everyone can find the perfect gift for the forthcoming celebration. The Christmas Market is the meeting place for young and old, and for our many guests from near and far. Advent in Klagenfurt is a special time when you can experience our charming city centre with all your senses.
