Advent time Bad Gleichenberg

Experience Advent as it used to be: contemplative, traditional, and full of genuine Styrian customs. In the heart of Bad Gleichenberg, the main square transforms into an atmospheric Christmas world on the Advent Sundays – far from the hustle and bustle.

Amidst fragrant fir trees, crackling fire pits, and lovingly decorated wooden huts, visitors will find an Advent market with a special charm. Handmade crafts, culinary specialties from the region, and atmospheric music make the pre-Christmas season an unforgettable experience.

• Traditional Crafts: Wood carvings, candles, knitted goods, and gifts from the region
• Culinary Delights: Cookies, cakes, hot drinks, and delicacies like in grandmother's time
• Musical Program: Choirs, brass groups, and Advent songs create a festive atmosphere
• Atmosphere: Lanterns, candlelight, and the large nativity scene under the giant tree create a unique ambiance

A visit to Bad Gleichenberg can be wonderfully combined with a relaxing spa stay at the Therme der Ruhe or an excursion in the Thermen & Vulkanland experience region. This way, the Advent season becomes the perfect combination of contemplation, culinary experiences, and moments of well-being.
