Glittering happiness
Welcome to the Christmas and winter markets in Halle
When the city is bathed in warm and cosy lights as well as delicious smells at the most beautiful time of the year, mouth-watering treats and sweets are not far away. Traditional handicrafts, enchanting gifts and handmade festive decorations bring a sparkle to hearts and eyes in many large and small places. The two reindeer Finni and Rudi are also eager to discover the numerous markets and events throughout the city.
Our reindeer Finni & Rudi
Having come to the Saale as a gift from our Finnish twin city Oulu, the little reindeer family now lives in the Goldberg 20 zoo. During Advent, the two reindeer make their grand entrance when their drawn versions accompany us through the Christmas program and the wintry city. They adorn the annual Christmas market mug, which has already become a coveted collector's item, as well as one or two gift items from the hallesaale* store.
