Altenburg

Altenburg makes Christmas a very special experience. It has a range of activities for you to enjoy including a torch-lit evening walk in the old quarter, theatre shows and concerts in churches and at the castle. Take a leisurely stroll round the Christmas market and admire the Christmas exhibition at Altenburg Castle or the collection of Nativity depictions at Posterstein Castle.
