On the four Advent weekends, each from Friday to Sunday, at the Museum Angewandte Kunst
25.-27 November, 2-4 December, 9-11 December, 16-18 December
In the run-up to Christmas, the Museum Angewandte Kunst is dedicated to special and thoughtful giving. Alongside design and sustainability, the focus is on gestures of mutual appreciation.
For the third time, the foyer of the museum will be transformed into a colorful marketplace where local vendors, small producers and manufactures will offer their goods for sale. At the heart of this market are beautiful and handmade products, careful workmanship and original design ideas. From noble objects made of wood, porcelain and paper to light design, unique jewellery and culinary delicacies, you will find exceptional gift ideas here. A small Café with sweet treats provides for a pre-Christmas mood next to it.
The market opens its doors on Advent weekends, Fridays to Sundays, from 10 am to 6 pm.
Admission is free for all visitors.
