Elbhangfest Christmas Market

A really different Christmas market

Small but elegant, this market near the Blaues Wunder (Blue Wonder) bridge is something of an insider tip. It takes place among the half-timbered houses of the idyllic village-like suburb of Loschwitz. Great food, really good mulled wine, beautiful handcrafted items that you won’t find in every gift shop, plus a high-quality cultural programme ranging from classical to jazz. The short journey there is well worthwhile.
