From 16. November to 23. December 2026, Darmstadt will once again offer the best in culinary delights, Christmas shopping and a festive atmosphere!
Culinary and handicraft specialities invite you to pre-Christmas hustle and bustle at Darmstadt‘s Christmas market. The adventually decorated city centre and the Christmas trees on Marktplatz, Luisenplatz and Ludwigsplatz create a Christmas atmosphere.
The special highlight every year are the stalls from Darmstadt‘s twin towns. Whether handicrafts or culinary specialities such as Hungarian lángos or wine and cheese from Saanen (Switzerland) - the twin towns are eagerly awaited by Darmstadt residents and visitors alike every year.
This year, the Darmstadt Christmas Market is being supported by the science and technology company Merck, ENTEGA and the Sparkasse Darmstadt.
Please note: The Christmas Market will stay closed on Totensonntag (22.11.).

In his photographic work, Dennis Haustein (* 1991) deals intensively with the history of our interaction with nature and specifically examines the representations of nature in the sciences as symptoms of ideological discourses. He has also often dealt with the situation of nature in urban spaces. His forensically oriented works question the social aspects of the category "nature", which can be traced back to democratic principles through artistic abstraction.

Dragons have inspired the human imagination for thousands of years. The fascinating mythical creatures are part of the repertoire of great stories - from ancient myths to contemporary series highlights. Dragon books, games and stuffed animals can even be found in many children‘s rooms. Depending on the cultural context, very different characteristics are attributed to dragons: In European cultures, they appear as menacing creatures that combine the characteristics of snakes and predators. In China, Korea and Japan, on the other hand, the dragon has mostly positive connotations and keeps nature in balance as a cosmic force.
