Thun Christmas market

The Christmas market in Thun enchants the old town with festively illuminated little houses, handmade gifts and culinary specialties.

Wonderful things are on offer in over 40 wooden huts from 6 to 23 December 2024. From regional delicacies and fragrant spices to handicrafts made from wood, textiles and leather. Come by and let yourself be enchanted.

It's worth visiting the Christmas market several times, as some of the little houses change their offerings a few times.

Travel comfortably by train to Thun. The Christmas market is just a 5-minute walk from the station.

Advent stroll Thun

An Advent stroll in Thun will get you in the Christmas spirit. On a guided pre-Christmas walk through the festively illuminated Old Town of Thun, the guides will tell you stories and legends about Christmas and Advent traditions. After the tour, you can enjoy a cup of mulled wine over a pleasant chat.

Chlouse-Schwümme

Brave, cold-resistant Chläusinnen and Chläuse jump into the icy Aare behind the Christmas market for a good cause. A well-deserved, warming reward awaits them at the town hall.

Santa Claus comes to the Christmas market

Wearing a red coat and a long, white beard, Santa Claus travels the world during the Christmas season. His calendar is full to the brim, but he has kept time free for a visit to the Thun Christmas market.

I wonder what goodies he has in his sacks for the children?

Santa Claus is looking forward to meeting young and old alike.
