Christmas Market in front of the Eigelstein City Gate

The charming neighbourhood Christmas market in front of the historic Eigelstein City Gate invites you to browse and enjoy the Advent season. Among the half-timbered huts, you’ll discover distinctive crafts, tasty treats and a cosy atmosphere in the heart of the neighbourhood. Children can enjoy a carousel, and St Nicholas hands out chocolate figures of himself.

In the evening, live music on a small stage provides atmospheric entertainment. Your mulled wine is served by volunteers from the Bürgerverein Kölner Eigelstein e. V., the local residents’ association. With every drink, you support the neighbourhood, as all proceeds go towards local projects.
