Christmas market underground

In a family-friendly atmosphere, we celebrate the 3rd Advent weekend in the Stollen (regardless of the weather!) with Christmas market stalls, mulled wine, food and music.

The Velsen Adventure Mine invites you to the only underground Christmas market in the Saarland on December 13 and 14. In a family-friendly and weather-independent atmosphere, we celebrate the third weekend of Advent in the cozy, illuminated gallery - with around 25 exhibitors, lovingly designed Christmas market stalls, gift ideas, mulled wine, cakes, sausages and many other delicacies. The right atmosphere is created by background music, which enhances the special magic of this extraordinary place.

We charge a symbolic entrance fee to keep waiting times to a minimum (for mining law reasons, only a limited number of people are allowed in the tunnel at any one time)

Tickets are available online in advance via our partner Fareharbor for two shifts (time periods): So you should consider in advance whether you would prefer to come early or rather in the afternoon.
