This weekend is your last chance to experience the quaint St. Wendel Christmas market! Stroll along 130 stalls filled with local delicacies, arts and crafts and gifts for loved ones. Visit in the afternoon to witness a train of camels, lead by the Three Wise Men, making their way through the town followed by fire eaters and musicians. At the end of the procession, visitors can listen as they tell the magical story of Christmas. Other fun and exciting treasures found within the St. Wendel Christmas include life-size nutcrackers making the perfect photo ops, a mesmerizing 40-foot tall wooden Christmas pyramid, St. Nicholas walking the cobblestone streets handing candy out to all of the children, and a snowy hill near the medieval market for kids to sled and tube down.

The market is open every day from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and ends this Sunday, Dec.15.
