The Herrschinger Christkindlmarkt has been a highlight of the Advent season at Ammersee for many years.

The event is designed as a charming meeting place experience for associations, regional exhibitors, and visitors from the entire lake region. Admission is free.

Regionally Rooted and Lovingly Curated
Herrsching focuses on what makes a real Bavarian Christmas market: handcrafted items, seasonal products, warm lights, and offerings supported by the region. Reports about the market mention mulled wine, punch, handicrafts, gift ideas, and culinary specialties. The atmosphere in front of the Erlöserkirche shapes the shopping experience just as much as its location in the center of the town.

Market Character with Tradition
The Christkindlmarkt in Herrsching has a long-standing tradition and is supported by the local community. For the 2026 edition, the date is set for December 12 and 13; thus, the market falls exactly on the busy Advent weekend before Christmas. The community and local press describe the market as an event organized by Herrschingers for Herrschingers and guests from outside. This creates closeness, reliability, and a distinctly regional character. ([herrschinger-spiegel.de](https://www.herrschinger-spiegel.de/gemeinderatssitzung-vom-23-02-26/?utm_source=openai))
