Reminiscent of the centuries-old Christkindlesmarkt of Nüremberg, Germany, the 13th annual Old World Christmas Market at The Osthoff Resort offers the warmth and merriment of this Old World tradition. For ten consecutive days, guests stroll the aisles of this grand heated tent bedecked with fragrant boughs of fresh evergreens and the tantalizing scents of roasted almonds and Nüremberg bratwurst as they browse for unique and specialty items among international and regional artisans. Czech blown-glass ornaments, Russian nesting dolls, German hand-carved smokers and nutcrackers, gingerbread houses, fine apparel, Estonia woolens, framed photography, paintings and prints, fine chocolates, exquisite handmade jewelry, Plauen lace, stone and porcelain sculptures, fine woodwork, mink products and much more!
The Old World Food Court offers shoppers space to relax and enjoy delectable German fare, such as, Nüremberg bratwurst, hot glühwein, sauerbraten, dumplings, wiener schnitzel, potato pancakes, red cabbage, pulled pork and apple strudel. Father Christmas, the venerable old gentleman in his berry red, fur-trimmed suit, roams the market merrily greeting children of all ages. So be sure to bring along your camera for some memorable photo opportunities.
