OUR MARKT
Begin a tradition with your family at our Day Markt or a date night or friends outing for our Night Markt. The atmosphere is bustling with shoppers, food, drink, and music, yet peaceful to wander or sit. Our German Christmas Markt in Charleston is inspired by a "Romantik" Christmas Markt in Riedenburg, Germany where we visited in 2018 with Simone, one of our two special German girls like family to us. The Christkindlmarkt Charleston experience includes shopping the wares of local makers, seasonal gifts, decor, and other European finds. Our traditional German handworks are crafted and imported from Seiffen in the Erzgebirge region of the Ore Mountains.
