Advent

Everything is turning white and Advent is approaching: for many, this is the most wonderful time of the year. While some people wax up their skis and head off into the mountains, others look forward to the contemplative activities. From Eugendorf you have both options: The mountains are already beginning and with Salzburg you have a stronghold of Advent markets right on your doorstep.

One of the most beautiful Advent markets in the world
International rankings regularly place Salzburg’s Christmas market in the top 10, and the backdrop of the large squares around the cathedral really does create a unique atmosphere. The scent of mulled wine, punch and hot jacket potatoes wafts over the lights of the stalls and many a Christmas present has been bought here directly from regional producers.
You can find more information here.

The Hellbrunn Advent Magic at Hellbrunn Palace is also highly recommended. You can also drive or walk up to the fortress directly in the city and attend the Salzburg Fortress Advent with castle flair.

Advent singing has a long tradition in Salzburg. Every year there are various concerts that are added to Salzburg’s already dense cultural programme. The Grosses Festspielhaus, St Andrä Church, the University Auditorium and the fortress are just some of the venues. Tickets can be ordered in advance.

From Eugendorf to the Advent markets
You can reach the centre of Salzburg in less than 20 minutes by S2, buses 130, 131 and 140 or simply by car. Look forward to punch and biscuits and don’t miss the view of the white roofs of Salzburg’s churches and houses from the Mönchsberg. You will find the perfect accommodation in quiet and charming Eugendorf with excellent transport links and winter sports facilities in the surrounding area.
