Christmas village on the Lindener Berg

Every weekend there are different exhibitors, a small choir program, a blazing fire pit for stick bread, hot waffles, punch and hot chocolate, cakes as well as bratwurst, chips, tarte flambée, soup, etc. ... All this forms the culinary and hospitable framework for cozy, shared hours in the enchanted winter village on the Lindener Berg in the atmospheric Advent season.

On the fourth Saturday of Advent, the winter walking acts by the group “Die Nebelschwingen” will enchant the audience—mysterious and endearing at the same time. Father Frost, Frau Holle, and Naya, the winter dragon, emerge from the winter forest and scatter their magical snow.

Fire Department for Young and Old

Even in its 15th anniversary year, the Winterdorf am Lindener Berg is waiving the exhibitor fee. Instead, exhibitors make a voluntary donation, which this year will go to the Friends of the Hannover-Linden Volunteer Fire Department e.V. — the “Lindener Löschbutjer.” Every Saturday, visitors can look forward to hands-on activities organized by the Linden Volunteer Fire Department.
