The festive spirit spreads, and the markets open their doors full of lights and sweet treats. The air is filled with the scent of mulled wine, cinnamon stars, and gingerbread... We bring you directly from Berlin to the Harz. Here, the UNESCO World Heritage City of Quedlinburg invites you to the "Advent in den Höfen." In the midst of its historic town center, more than twenty of the most beautiful courtyards, which are locked away behind thick walls throughout the year, open up and shine in a festive Christmas glow. In front of the Town Hall, you will find the large illuminated Christmas tree and an abundance of Christmas treats. Thale offers a more tranquil atmosphere. How about a winter walk along the Präsidentenweg to the nearby Roßtrappe with a sensational view? On the way back, enjoy a quick drink to warm up at the Christmas market in the Town Hall square.
