Forest Christmas market in Schifferstadt: A festival for the whole family!

In the Bird Park Schifferstadt, the popular forest Christmas market will take place once again on the third weekend in Advent. The park has been attracting visitors for over 60 years, and the idea for this special Christmas market was created after the local Christmas market was closed. Sascha Greund, the chairman of the association, recalled: "In the first year we had a few huts and 60 helpers and were overrun by visitors." Over 120 helpers are now in use to organize this popular event. Preparations began in April to offer visitors a wide range of handmade goods and culinary specialties, such as Rheinpfalz.de reported.
