Christmas market - from above

Climbing the Marienkirche tower in Osnabrück during the Christmas market season is a very special experience. The impressive St. Mary's Church is enthroned in the festively decorated old town and its tower offers a unique view over Osnabrück and the Christmas market below. During the Advent season, when the city is bathed in a warm glow of lights and the scent of roasted almonds, mulled wine and gingerbread fills the air, St. Mary's Church opens its doors to visitors who want to make the special ascent. The climb is not only a small sporting challenge, but also a journey through history. The winding, stone steps tell the story of centuries and offer a constant stream of small window views of the Christmas-decorated town. Once at the top, every visitor is rewarded with a breathtaking panorama. The view over the sea of lights of the Christmas market and the winter-decorated streets of Osnabrück is unforgettable. The clear winter air and the soft sound of Christmas music that can be heard from below create an enchanting atmosphere that invites you to linger and enjoy. This unique opportunity to climb the Marienkirchturm during the Christmas market attracts both locals and tourists who appreciate the special flair and tranquillity above the rooftops of the city. It is a wonderful opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of the market for a moment and experience the festive atmosphere from a new perspective.
